I am trying to get my LCD monitor work, which is plugged in VGA.
However, when i using "xrandr --output VGA --auto" to set it up, i get this failure "xrandr: cannot find crtc for output VGA"
i am using intel graphic card, and the result of "xrandr -q --verbose" is as follows,
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 2960 x 1024

you already have LVDS and HDMI-1 connected... I don't think you can have 3 outputs with any intel chips.

how many monitors do you want to plugin? three? like damjan said, not sure if that works at all.
or are the hdmi outputs idle and you're just trying to plug in a second screen?
whats the exact problem? no output on that screen at all? or mirroring the internal one? in that case, try
xrandr --output VGA --right-of LVDS
(or left-of...)
can you plug that monitor in with hdmi? (adapter/etc) you might try that as well, maybe just the vga fails.
