Hi,
I wrote a shell script for display switching. I use it under Ubuntu Dapper Drake. As I don't have a CRT, any feedback is welcome.

So, I'm searching up and down and there seems to be no way to enable the TV output without an ad-hoc xorg.conf. So my question is, what is fireglcontrolpanel useful for?

Hi, I wrote a shell script for display switching. I use it under Ubuntu Feisty Fawn.

Create /etc/acpi/events/ibm-videobtn:

# /etc/acpi/events/ibm-videobtn
# This is called when the user presses the video button.

event=ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001007
action=/etc/acpi/ibm-video.sh

Create /etc/acpi/ibm-video.sh with permissions 755:

#!/bin/sh

. /etc/default/acpi-support
. /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs

getXconsole;

change_resolution() {
        if [ x"$XAUTHORITY" != x"" ]; then
                if [ x"`xrandr -q | grep $1[[:space:]]x[[:space:]]$2 | cut -b -1`" != x"*" ]; then
                        xrandr -d $DISPLAY -s $1x$2
                fi
        fi
}

change_monitor() {
        if [ x"$XAUTHORITY" != x"" ]; then
                su $user -c "aticonfig --enable-monitor=$1" &>/dev/null
        fi
}

if [ x"$XAUTHORITY" != x"" ]; then

        CURRENT=`aticonfig --query-monitor | grep Enabled | cut -b 21- | \
                        sed -e 's/lvds/LCD/g' -e 's/crt1/CRT/g' -e 's/tv/TV-Out/g' -e 's/,/ and/g'`

Finally! With 8.25.18 stopping gdm no longer oopses my kernel and I can reboot cleanly. sus2ram runs smoothly as well. All hail!
