Hi,
Thanks again.

Now I understand the "Pipes", but is still a mistery for me why lspci sees the 0:2:1, if it is a Windows "placeholder" (propably because I do not understand what a placeholder is...).Alex is correct. Let focus on the primary display controller on PCI:0:2:0 with Display Pipe A and Display Pipe B. In your case you can only have PipeA=CRT and PipeB=LCD (LFP).
That is why you have the following information (II) I810(0): Display Info: CRT: attached: TRUE, present: TRUE, size: (800,600) (II) I810(0): Display Info: LFP (local flat panel): attached: TRUE, present: TRUE, size: (1024,768)
The problem is why XFree is saying there is no active display on Pipe B
(II) I810(0): No active displays on Pipe B
you can use the "monitorlayout" option to force on the pipes. see the i810 man page.

Regarding the "No active displays on Pipe B", this probably happens because, before starting X, I disable the LCD with the keyboard sequence FN+F5. If I do not do this, the screen becomes unreadble (I guess because the CRT works in 1024x768 and the LCD do not).
Thanks a lot for the explanations, but I would like to return to the question "why the CRT works under 1024x768 and the LCD not". Can this be related to the VESA VBE DCC that does not work on the LCD?
Thanks again.
Regards,
Sergio
