Hello,<br><br>I just installed Fedora 9 on a thinkpad, with an Intel GM965/GL960 graphics card. I also got a Dell monitor.<br>I am interested in being able to turn off the laptop LCD screen and only use the Dell monitor.<br>
I got a hint that it is possible for X60 thinkpad using aticonfig (from here: <a href="http://phaselockfel.blogspot.com/2008/02/install-fedora-8-in-thinkpad-t60.html">http://phaselockfel.blogspot.com/2008/02/install-fedora-8-in-thinkpad-t60.html</a>). However, I do not have aticonfig installed, and I believe my graphics card is different.<br>
aticonfig, though, has an option to turn off the LCD laptop display. Is there any way to find out what is the "aticonfig" on my Fedora installation for the video card I mentioned above?<br><br>I also tried a "dual head" setting in Fedora, this does not work as well. I am able to see, though, both screens, and they show exactly the same. I just want to turn off the laptop display.<br>
<br>I understand also that there is a different between making the LCD be blank and turning it off completely. I would like to turn it off completely. Any hints how to find the binary that controls the video card directly (just like aticonfig) would be appreciated. I tried really thoroughly to find that binary (if it exists), but could not.<br>
<br>Thanks.<br><br>
