hello,
i'm searching for a way to let my laptop (hp 8510w) switch to monitor and set another resolution, when closing the lid (or by pressing fn + f4 videoswitch). the laptop has an nvidia quadro card build in. i experiemented with xrandr and nvidia-settings (command line) and acpi-support with no solution. so does anyone have any ideas how to solve this problem? thank you a lot!
