OK. I am at the office so I can try!

The toggling is still not working under X. There is one difference though
and that is after starting X the first time pressing fn+f7 triggers thinkpad
buttons to display "LCD on, CRT off" or something like this on the screen.
However, at this time they were both on and nothing changed in terms of switching.
Subsequent fn+f7 tries does not produce this message. I do see a flickerring on
the external display everytime I do fn+f7 though.

I have a feeling that fn+f7 is actually working behind X in the textmode screen.
Could this be?

Another thing is that for IBM ThinkPads when there is an external screen
plugged in this becomes the "primary".

Thanks
