I'm trying to work out if the IBM T30 can do dual head displays (i.e. one
head is the built in LCD and the other is an external monitor).  This is
slightly OT since I won't be able to install linux on it if I get one (has
to be a very specific win2k image, bleargh).  I was hoping someone might
have one and be able to give me a definitive answer.

If they do support it there is a possibility of getting one since they are
the new company standard laptop (currently using a desktop with dual head
but I'm sure my boss would prefer it if I caould take it home to "work" on
8^).

I have had a play with one here today but was unable to figure out how to
enable the video out as a second display and I can't figure out if it is
just a broken driver or if it just does not support it.

Thanks
Michael
