Well, I think I set up my XF86Config-4 to do what you suggested. I am
including it with this email. However, X crashes on me when I try to
invoke startx (The XFree86.0.log file is at 
http://www.senfamily.org/xfree/XFree86.0.log).

If I change the screen directive for the "Card1" device from "Screen 1"
to "Screen 0", I get a display on the external CRT (while the LCD is 
just backlit with a blank screen).

Any ideas?
