Distro Recommendation for an X200

I am looking for a Disto recommendation that works well on an X200 running an external LCD via dock/displayport. If anyone has that working well please let me know what your distro is. I have been having many issues with (what I once thought was) my favorite distro Linux Mint 9. Windows 7 works flawlessly on this setup.

I am having the exact same display issue as I had on Linux Mint 9 on Fedora 13. So the problem is not distro specific.

We are running Arch Linux with an external monitor and it is functioning well.

Are you running an external LCD via dock/displayport ?

I'm planning on trying Xubuntu 10.10 on my R51 machine.
