desparate for help on external monitor



Hi,

I have a Dell x300 laptop with 1024x768 display.

I also have an external LCD monitor of 1280x1024.

I want to be able to switch between the monitors, on the fly if
possible (that is, no reboot or restart of X), so that I will have the
maximum resolution in whatever monitor i use. I don't need to use both
simultaneously.

Thank you,
Ittay
