In that case, edit /etc/init.d/gdm as follows:

1. sudo gedit /etc/init.d/gdm
2. Scroll to the bottom.
3. *before* the 'exit 0' put the following:

# Turn the internal LCD and external LCD both "on"
i810switch crt on lcd on


Now both should be on every time you start the computer.

Cheers,
Daniel.
