Has anyone played around with using external monitors
on Plan 9 laptops...I've been trying to get it to work on my
thinkpad 600e and I can get it to work sometimes, but only if I boot up
in exclusive external video mode -- but it seems unpredictable
and quick to anger.

I've used them once in a while. They are in fact
unpredictable and quick to anger. We don't have
a good interface for setting two sets of registers:
one for the LCD and one for the external monitor.
I have some ideas about how to fix it, but it hasn't
been pressing. It's on the vga todo list.
If anyone else wants to beat me to it...
