Re: switch to switch to different display

Hi,

Have you tried adding 'Option "CloneDisplay" 3' to the device section of
your XF86Config file? This worked for me on my Thinkpad T30 to send the
video to the external display. However, I'm not sure if this will work
if you're using both LCD and external at the same time. See radeon(4)
for more info.

Cheers,
Leigh Anderson
