(1) Check the display setting in your BIOS. You may need to make sure it
is set to VGA+LCD to have the LCD activated.
(2) Make sure your display is configured correctly with
system-config-dsplay. Video card is ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 and monitor
type is IBM 9514-B TFT Panel. (This is for the 1024x768 display.)
(3) Otherwise, it Just Worked for me. <Fn>-<F7> should cycle among
panel, external, and both.
