I'd like the option to plug a crt monitor or projector into the external video port and have it work in twinview (preferably clone). I have studied the resources and something just isn't getting through my skull. I can run one or the other. When both run a gui, one of them is scrambled - usually the laptop one. The second monitor, when it is in use, should run at a standard resolution (1024x768 or 800x600) while the laptop video runs at 1280x800. Could you guys take a look at my xorg.conf file below and give me some pointers about what I need to do to get twinview working so that the laptop works properly when the external monitor is disconnected?
