Ajax,

This is a function of the BIOS.
I had Debian and Mandrake loaded on an IBM laptop.
I just used the Function keys on the laptop to switch between LCD or
External monitor, or both.
Have you tried that yet?

Subject: [expert] Please help me get rid of windoze!



I've asked this question in a few places with no takers so I thought that
I'd
take it to the experts.  I need to do a presentation at school.  I thought I
could use open office or kpresenter.  The problem is I need to get the
external out and tv out working on my laptop.  This presentation will
probably be using a projector so I believe getting the external monitor to
work is more important.  I have an ibm a21p with the ati m3 16mb video card.
Any ideas?
Please save me from M$!!
Otherwise I don't need M$ very much.  The spreadsheet program of open office
isn't yet up to excel but Matlab runs on Linux so I can do all of my
calculations there.
