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?
