OK, to clarify, my laptop has two display devices: the built-in monitor, and a VGA output jack. When I boot Linux, it uses the built-in screen. If I close the screen, Linux (or the hardware, not sure which one) switches the output to the VGA output jack. If I open the lid again, the display output does NOT switch back to the built-in screen.
I need to have something that will automatically switch the display output to the built-in screen when I open it.
I am running a Linux kernel 2.6.21.7 on a Dell latitude D610
The problem occurs both when running X AND when in command line mode.
