Hey All

I have an IBM T43 with the Intel 915 chipset running FC5. I wanted to
extend my desktop onto my external monitor which would not work using
system-config-display. I then manually hacked my xorg.conf and now I
have a working extended desktop but I can no longer go into
system-config-display.

Anyone have any tips for getting around this please? Also a neat idea
for choosing different xorg.conf files for whether or not I have my
external monitor connected would be handy.

Cheers,
