I've been trying to do the same thing for the past 5 months. I would
like to use the laptop for academic presentations. I need the laptop
display at the native 1280xwhatever resolution, and the video out at
800x600. This hasn't worked for me. I agree that changing xconfig files
every time sucks.
Surely someone has figured this out????
ciao,

So far i found out, what every i put as the first Screen in the
ServerLayout section is the resolution picked for both displays. So if
i only want to run the external monitor then i can with out a
problem, but i still cant get both displays on a diffrent resolution.
The reason im still trying for this, rather than except what ive
already got is at present i would need to change xorgs config file
everytime i want to switch displays. If you see where im coming from
