Now working: http://wdk.dyndns.org/xorg.conf.html
I can use the laptop with an external monitor, closing the lid so the LCD blanks, but retain full control over the external monitor (bios is set NOT to sleep when lid is closed!) X will start in 1600x1200 on both the LCD and ext monitor port, even with no monitor plugged in. Secret was the merged frame-buffer mode. I did try this at some point without luck before, but it works now! The duplicate device suggested by Carl was a no-no: hard lock every time X started. Hope this helps someone ...
