Sorry for bad reply. Here is a copy past of the message I have sent only to you by error, for the mailing list:
And an interesting side effect of my method is that you can continue to *not* having any Xorg.conf, which is not that bad in my humble opinion. (I am really grateful to Debian or whoever made it to allow me to avoid using that file) == MESSAGE SENT == I think the easier way is to use the XrandR software: no need to restart X, and bash auto-completion make things just easier to make the line you want, or change things temporarily. To make it automatic, just put the line in "~/.xinitrc". I do not have such a file here, but if you need I can send you the version I have at home (which works perfectly). I guess something like that would works for you for dual screen: "$xrandr --output LVDSI --mode 1366x768 --output VGA1 --mode 1920x1080 --right-of LVDSI" To only use the second screen, you can do that: "$xrandr --output LVDSI --off --output VGA1 --mode 1920x1080 --right-of LVDSI" Of course, I assumed that your lenovo have same graphic outputs as my eeepc, which could be wrong. Hope it helps.
