You really need two different DX4WIN.CFG files, one for each layout.
The layout is not stored in the log.

While I don't recommend this, you could create two different DX4WIN
directories on the same computer:

    C:\DX4W805.desktop
    C:\DX4W805.laptop

You can create each one by taking your existing DX4W805 directory and
copying the whole thing (Windows will create unique names when you
paste, which you can change later).  Create two desktop icons, one for
"DX4WIN - Desktop" and "DX4WIN - Laptop".  Both instances can
open/read/close the same log file.  DX4WIN only allows you to run
instance anyway, so there should be no problems with log conflicts.
Just make sure that when data files are updated, to run the updater in
BOTH directories to keep them "in sync".
