Thanks for sharing your instructions ! However, the internal LCD shows a corrupted display. Do you know if it is possible to just blank it? Also, for some reason the resolution defaults to 1024x768 (the maximum of the internal display) instead of 1280x1024 that I specified. I guess that it is somewhat related..

I guess > that it is somewhat related.. try switching resolutions with ctrl-alt-+ (on the numeric pad, IIRC) Actually I tried to switch resolutions with xrandr (I have no numeric pad), and it worked, but the higher resolution doesn't output correctly (it is very dark). I'm not aware of any updates on this issue (garbled internal monitor) but if someone wants testing I'm happy to provide it. Count me too.
