See Benjamin's answers for this. I am using SVGA external display output for presentations, the only problem is that the difference of resolutions. Some beamers might have problems with it, but it is possible to work around them. Usually I use a virtual screen of 1280x1024 points for presentations. > Btw does someone use this laptop fulltime under linux ? For what > reason? I'm very interrested by your feedback. My machine is dual boot. I am using it under GNU/Linux 98% of my time. Mainly because my company (Intevation) is focused on Free Software business, e.g. Kolab and I run the KDE Kolab Client and also do tests of the server. And secondly because I value my freedom. Exceptions are when I want to test Free Software under Mac OS 10. E.g. like thuban.intevation.org. Bernhard
