Doug, I'm on travel today, so I can't test until tomorrow, but xrandr shows all of the devices, VGA-0 (VGA connection on docking station), DVI-0 (DVI connection on docking station), LVDS (Laptop screen), and S-video (S-video connector). Unless I plug in a monitor, all connections (except LVDS) show as "disconnected". If I plug something in, it then shows as "connected" and available modes appear. The display is still reporting no signal until I do an xrandr command to put something on the display. I could probably also set it up as a second screen in xorg.conf, but I have not tried this. xrandr --output VGA-0 --same-as LVDS This makes the VGA connected display show the same thing as the laptop display (other than resolution) I have not tried plugging into the laptop. I'll try this tomorrow, as well. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
