Re: Bug related to ACPI
okay okay .. i will try this strobe light thing of yours .. but the computer does not give me any interface to switch between monitors when two of them are connected.
and when I disconnected the external monitor, laptop's LCD did NOT come back to life.

Re: Bug related to ACPI
Think different... IMHO this can be the key to this problem. I think, its not driver related, but setting related. So you'll need to find th f*****g piece of setup entry, thus will change or set the detected external vga-out to primary, the internal to secondary. Second, if you turn acpi off, it'll be no detection for the second vga-port and the internal lcd is automaticly the primary display. A solution can be making the function keys functional and change the Display with <Fn><F8>. (And then solve the display binding)
