I use i810switch and restart x window but it doesn't work. I found that
to enable both lcd and crt by tweaking xorg.conf. I edit xorg.conf in
Device Section to be like this.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Driver "i810"
Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP"
Option "Clone" "true"
EndSection
Now my desktop is show both lcd and crt. However I don't know to turn
off crt but I think it 's not a big problem.
Thank you
