Hi! I recently got a Thinkpad T23 (S3 Inc. SuperSavage IX/C SDR (rev 05) graphics adaptor) which works very well with Lenny. However, I have problems using the external VGA port. According to the Thinkwiki[1] I tried to use "s3switch" to enable / disable the output to internal LCD and external CRT. The wiki page mentions a needed patch for the s3switch tool; the link is dead, but I found a patch a [2] (patch applies quite clean; with an offset of 4 lines).
Works so far so good; although I still get some segfaults from time to time (but at least I'm able to enable external CRT). What I haven't got working so far is to enable *both* internal LCD and external VGA port. Every time I try that, the external CRT is enabled and the internal LCD get's black and I get a segfault :( Has anyone got that working or knows a working patch for s3switch for an IBM Thinkpad T23? Or is there an other solution?
