hey guys - just did a nice install of Kalyway 10.5.2 - and everythings working nicely out of the box basically.

I have a hp dv66xx series notebook with a Nvidia 8400M GS max res on laptop screen 1280x800 with hdmi output to the external screen which supports 1600x1050

I installed the NVinjectGO drivers - have yet to change the value in Xcode (ill do that after i post this)

In windows i couldnt have both screens on because the external display will match the resolution on the laptop screen (hidious on that big a screen lol) and now even when i close the lid on the laptop it still wont change to the higher resolution.

If i dont tick mirror - the external screen only displays the background.

So i believe that my graphics is not MOVING onto the external display its just being mirrored - regardless of if i close the lid.

Any help on how to move to graphics to external display on laptop lid close?

manage to get the resoultion fixed by unticking mirror. and setting up the bar in Arrangements - but now even with the lid of my laptop closed i can still put my mouse into its screen - how can i make sure its turned off and not part of the display?
