Hi all,

Is it possible to totally omit the netbook's own screen and use an
external (VGA connected) monitor instead? Likewise I want to use an
extenal keyboard and mouse instead of those in the netbook. Can I expect
a "plug it and start using" experience or do I need to tweak Xorg.conf
etc and build a custom squashfs image?

>From my description you probably guess I want to use the netbook as only
a central processing unit, eg a bare thin client with no peripherals or
screen. (The built-in screen and keyboard are too small and mouse too
inconvenient, but the "muscle" of the hardware, silent operation and
small physical dimensions, and of course purchase price is ideal for
thin client use). Have any of you subscribers used netbooks/notebooks in
this way?
