I have a question: is there any way to disable lvds and use vga as the primary, the sony phoenix bios has no options leaving me 60% blind with a cracked panel. I guess there might be a bit in nvram.
xrandr --output LVDS -off xrandr --auto
something like that (it may be LVDS-0 or LVDS-1 or something, just look at the output of plain 'xrandr'). To make it semi-permanent, make the change in gnome-display-properties; the layout you set in gnome-display-properties is saved across GNOME sessions as your user. To make it completely solid across all X sessions for all users, you can do it in xorg.conf , following the syntax documented here:
That reminds me, I am seeing xrandr settings not persist across suspend/resume - which component is that best filed against - kernel or xorg?
Start with X. In fact, in general, report KMS bugs against X, it's easier than trying to find them in the huge pile of kernel bugs.
