I just opened my lid and indeed, my laptop screen is on and shows the
desktop. So this is expected then.
Note that my laptop lid is closed.
You can tell X (through xrandr) to turn off the LVDS before closing the
lid, manually or using a script. Then the desktop will be resized to
the dimension of the other output.
I think the bug may be the switching between internal and external monitor
then. Under Etch, when I started my laptop with the lid closed, the desktop
would be 1280x1024. When I openend my lid, the internal display would be
off. I was able to switch between internal monitor and external monitor with
the function keys (on my Dell, it's Fn+F8 and reads "CRT/LCD").
It seems that when I boot the laptop with the lid closed under Lenny, the
internal monitor is still working. And my Fn+F8 key doesn't work anymore to
switch between the displays.
Is this also a bug in Xorg somewhere? Any idea where I should reassign this
to?
Thanks in advance,
