Hi!
If you have started X (which I assume you have from your description),=20
try fiddling with xrandr.  Just running xrandr without any arguments=20
should show all screens connected to your computer.  You can then=20
disable certain screens with
xrandr --output [name-of-output] --off
The name of the output is listed in the xrandr output from the first run.
Is this a dual or multi screen set up?

Regards
