I have only managed to configure X11 tu use an external monitor. |

Take a look at the xorg.xonf files on http://www.aronchi.org/LinuxOnIBookG4 |

Another thing I noticed is that it even depends on the VGA cable |
| 12 |
(if you are using the mini-DVI-to-VGA-Adapter) whether this works |
| 13 |
or not: with Mac OS X any VGA-cable will do, under Gentoo some |
| 14 |
will not work (depends on what pins are missing). |

pbbuttonsd should be able to do that, too, but I have not yet |
| 21 |
tried this feature. |
