Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.4.2-10.lenny2
Severity: important
I guess it is well known that the fn-f7 key which toggles between LCD and
external monitor for thinkpads
and other laptops does not work in X.org although it worked in XF86. Older
versions of X.org had
options BiosDisplay and BiosHotkeys which reportedly fixed this problem,
but these are no longer used.
Is there a fix within the current xorg? Having to go through xrandr is a lot
more difficult than hitting the
fn-f7 key.
