I've also been trying (without success) to make this work. Using the binaries from http://penguinppc.org/~daenzer/ and an XF86Config like the one posted a few days ago here (except with the resolution changed for the iBook). The only progress is that now if I attach the external monitor to my iBook the monitor comes out of sleep mode, whereas before putting the second device section into XF86Config it would stay powered down. Obviously some sort of VGA signal is being sent out, but the external screen remains blank. If anyone does fix this please let me know... James
