Usually this is what needs to be done if there are more than one command you  
wish to bind.

Well, i'm look for something more simple. For example, i open the keyboard  
(shortcuts option) and i want add some shortcut for change from notebook for  
TV.


I want do something very simple, but without this keyboard key is very hard.  
It is possible do it in some option inside of trisquel?

But how can i do that? Someone can help me? I have a new problem too. I  
changed some shortcuts and i want reset them to default, how can i do that?


I love free software but i think that simple problems has a hard solution.

I guess my solution is here. look -

#define XF86XK_Next_VMode   0x1008FE22   /* next video mode available  */
#define XF86XK_Prev_VMode   0x1008FE23   /* prev. video mode available */

But i don't know how can i use this information. I try paste on terminal but  
nothing happens. I'm not sure how can i use this aplication. Anyway is there  
some software than changes my screen output?


The lembas' solution seems to work but to me is very complex. I didn't know  
that was so hard change the screen.

And i solved my problem with shortcuts (the second problem) rsrs.

:) So the solution works. Goto system settings  keyboard or something like  
that where you get to define shortcuts. Then define a custom shortcut. Hit  
the plus. Input the command. Then the name you gave it will appear in the  
list. Click the word disabled after it and hit the key combo you want.

What kind of special keys?

On my laptop's keyboard has a combination fn + f8. But don't is there the key  
fn at my usb keyboard. Is there a combination? For exemple ctrl + alt +  
del?



When i plug the cable on TV shows the same image of laptop. The TV is  
mirrored at notebook on resolution 1024 x 768. I wish only see the  
tv-monitor.

I don't know such combo but try this. First install xdotool and then run

xdotool key XF86Display

(Letter case is meaningful, like usually.) You might need to do that a few  
times perhaps.
