[QUOTE="eburness, post: 63105"] Well, Yes, what I want to do is use the external monitor as the primary display. Now, video mirroring does that in a sense, but doesn't let you do a resolution higher than what is being simultaneously outputed to the iBook's LCD (which has a MAX resolution fo 1024x768). So I think what I need to do is either... A.) Have the iBook send a video signal to ONLY the external monitor (LCD goes blank), in which case the iBook would auto-detect that it was outputing to a display with a higher max resolution. B.) Using the extended desktop hack, configure the dual display setup so the ibook LCD is the secondary display and the external monitor is the primary display. Any suggestions???? [/QUOTE]
