Hi, I discovered the option "PanelOff" "on" for a radeon card (on a Sony Z1 laptop) and it changed my life because I was able to use my replicator and close the lid while having an external 19" VGA monitor (and external keyboard and mouse). I can even have an external monitor at 1400x1050 which is great. But in order to have "PanelOff on" set I need two separate files XF86Config-4 and XF86Config-4-dock which includes the "PanelOff on" option. Then I need a special "startxdock" script which simply is: #!/bin/sh # In order to start X when in a dock. startx -- -xf86config XF86Config-4-dock But how can I dynamically switch from one setting to the other without shutting down the X-server? Is there any change in /proc/whatever which could be set dynamically. If successful I could use FunctionKEY F7 to switch like on Windows. Sorry if the answer is trivial but I haven't found any answer, on Google at least.
