Just define the external screen as a "second monitor" then you can do whatever you want on your laptop screen, and no one can see a thing.
Best part of this is the openoffice presentation mode plugin works wonderfully, showing the slide on the external screen, and your notes and next slide on your laptop screen. Can't recommend that enough to people, it's wonderful.
Have you ever had any luck getting your second monitor to run at a completely different resolution? I have a laptop with an ATI Radeon Mobility HD 2600 and I've given up running dual monitors with it because my native laptop LCD is 1680x1050 and my second monitor is 1280x1024 and they just won't play nice together. Of course I have the same problem with LCD projectors and so I end up running "clone" mode at whatever resolution the projector supports. -- John Lange www.johnlange.ca -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
