G'day....

This is a hardware issue, not really a X/Linux issue...  (I think)

I believe the answer is simple and straightforward (as per other notebooks):

        * Take the video cable and connect it between the projector and the monitor port on the back of the powerbook.

You may need to press a keyboard sequence to switch between displays. (Ie. the internal LCD or the external monitor/projector.) However, if you plug in the external monitor/projector before starting up, it should quite happily display on both.

Suck it and see....

Warmest regards

Mike

        Subject:        [SLUG] Video projector, X, and a powerbook



Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a powerbook working
with a video projector?  I've looked for "dual head" and "X mirror" on
google, but only seem to find questions...

One of the SLUGAMuSIG people will be demoing the use of dd, python and
portaudio for music composition tomorrow and it'd be great to get a display
going.

X forwarding is the fallback I guess.

Cheers,

Denis Crowdy
