How to get external monitor working on Thinkpad T60p

[daneelgiskard]

Hi all,

 

I have succesfully installed leo4all on my T60p. I use ATIinject for my FireGL 5200 as described here: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?p...d1c19d9e465d256

 

This works all very nicely, but I'm struggling to get my external display to work. The following works: I connect my external display (A Dell LCD) through the VGA out port on my T60p. In OS X I click on "Detect Displays" in the Display Preferences. This will successfully and correctly detect my external monitor as a Dell 1907FP and will also set the correct resolution (1280x1024@60HZ) for this monitor.

 

However, the external monitor stays black. I cannot get OS X to actually display something on it. I know that it is there, I can actually drag and drop windows into the (black) monitor from my notebook display. But nothing is displayed there.

 

Can anyone help me?

 

This is the (what I think is relevant) excerpt from my Info.plist:

 

 ...

							 <key>@0,AAPL,boot-display</key>

							 <key>@0,ATY,EFIDisplay</key>

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Many thanks and all the best,
