Examine your keyboard. Look for an icon on some key that looks like a
monitor. The icon is usually painted with the same color as some other key
that's typically labeled "Fn". That's your hint. There may be more than one
key, to cut over your video completely, to the external port, or to have it
go both to the laptop and to the external video.
