If I try to get the 2 together: - - with Fn+F8 I can't, I mean, the switch is LCD <> CRT, never LCD+CRT and anyway I get a black band on top (the same as your) - - with 'i810switch' I get the same error you already described > Or are you using the framebuffer? I have not tried it at all. Can it even do > X? Or just no 3D, xvideo, etc? Well, I never tried the 'fbdev' driver on X. I use the general VESA fb but for the console. So, it should be useuful to give it a try, just to know if the switching problem is at BIOS level (as I think).
