Looks like this is not common knowledge, so here's the link:

This enables monitor spanning on an iBook (do check the commpatbility
list; 8 meg video cards don't work) with a larger resolution on your
external display.
Thanks for the link. I did not know that such a hack existed. One issue
I have with hacks is the supportability... Apple seams to accidently
disable such exploits with every new release of a patch. The DVD player
in Mac OS 10.2 comes to mind and the G4 upgrade in the B&W also comes
to mind.
I must applaud the hacks that mac users come up with. I have been
depended on those hacks for sometime. Even if I knew about the video
mirroring hack for the iBook I think I would have purchased the
powerbook.
Thanks again for the link.
