This little script does exactly that, for me: #! /bin/bash if xrandr | grep "VGA1 connected"; then xrandr --output VGA1 --auto --output LVDS1 --off ; fi exit Put it somewhere to run automatically upon login (I have it in KDE's Autostart configuration), and you're done. However, if you connect VGA after login, you need to execute the script manually. If something doesn't work, look at the output of "xrandr" in the terminal, maybe your devices have different names. And of course, you need to do xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto --output VGA1 --off before you disconnect VGA, if you don't plan to reboot the machine.
