I've recently connected my laptop, running SuSE 9.3, to a slides projector for a project presentation. To my surprise my laptop screen turned black , as if the laptop had been turned off, while the new "screen" was projected onto the wall. It was difficult for me to follow up the slide, being shown, with my comments as I had to keep my hands on the keyboard but turn my eyes to the wall behind my shoulders to be able to read. In my previous presentations I've always used someone else's laptop running Windows. My talks were easier because the slide shown on the wall was also displayed on the laptop monitor so I could read just focusing on the computer without stretching my neck. I wonder whether someone knows of SuSE set-ups that would make my life easier for my next presentations. In a few words, I wonder whether it is possible to make SuSE send the slide to the projector but also to the laptop monitor. Thank you in advance for your help. Happy New Year, maura
