Product: XFree86
Component: program
Summary: laptop acpi/XFree interaction
Version: 4.3-5mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Configuration: Toshiba 5205-S703 laptop, NVIDIA GeoForce 4 Go card
I am not sure if this is a kernel, XFree or what problem. But here it
is.
If I turn on the crt_out after loading the toshiba_acpi module, and I am
not running X, everythign works OK -- I get output both to my laptop screen and
to the crt (which is what you want when giving a presentation at
a podium). As long as I am at console level, I'm OK.
If I type "startx" however, the lcd screen turns white and streaky while the
windowing system displays fine on the crt. Thus, I can display windows on my
lcd *or* on the crt, but not both.
In addition, I cannot modify /proc/acpi/toshiba/video while windows is
running. I have to get out of X, go back to console, change it there, and then
get back into windows.
