Hi Marcin,
        I don't know exactly how that would be done in GRUB, but I'm afraid
that there's not an unique way to do this for all video card manufacturers.
        Your laptop probably has a key combination to switch the video output
(usually Function key + F5), or maybe your BIOS has an option for that,
something like "iGPU Multi-Monitor".
        If there's no BIOS option but they key combination works, maybe you
could get it working by using a hacky way, an usb keyboard emulator.
