Hello,
I have a use case which I want to make working.
I use external LCD display with my Lenovo Thinkpad T61p which has NVidia
Quadro FX570M chip in a dock in the office.
But when I go to home I want to suspend the laptop and resume at home
and of course use internal LCD.
But when I resume laptop I cannot see any picture on internal LCD,
because X still uses old configuration.
If I restart X server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace then it will start using
internal LCD.
Is any way to switch display on the fly without killing X?
How to configure X in order achieve that?
Any hints are welcome.
Thanks,
Dmitry
