Talk:Problem with video output switching

I have found a solution for switching back to LCD with the Intel Cards on my X40. But it semms a bit strange to me so maybe someone can confirm that it also works on other Thinkpads (mine is a X41) and setups before I edit that wiki entry.

If i do echo lcd_enable,crt_disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/video after enabling crt i get to see the screen on both lcd and crt although scrambled on crt. After executing it the second time i get lcd only. So for now i always execute that command twice.

Describe the problem (cloning)

Hello

I suggest to describe the problem a little more in detail. Moreover, cloning, that is to have the display on both screens the external and the LCD, is possible. Oub 13:57, 11 July 2006 (CEST):

Thats interresting. The person that wrote that "lcd_enable" should write which model he has, because I have no problems with my T43. I mainly use "video_switch".

X60(s)?

Does the problem of switching videao output also exist for the X60(s) series?
