Hi, * Mr. Adam Allen. <[email protected]> [2005-07-08]: > I am trying to configure my iBook so that I can connect up to an > external monitor. Under Mac OS/X this works fine, but not under Gentoo. I have only managed to configure X11 tu use an external monitor. Take a look at the xorg.xonf files on http://www.aronchi.org/LinuxOnIBookG4 Another thing I noticed is that it even depends on the VGA cable (if you are using the mini-DVI-to-VGA-Adapter) whether this works or not: with Mac OS X any VGA-cable will do, under Gentoo some will not work (depends on what pins are missing). > After much google searhcing I found a "m6mirror" command-line tool which > should switch the CRT on/off. This doesn't seem to help. pbbuttonsd should be able to do that, too, but I have not yet tried this feature. :wq -- [email protected] mailing list
