Not sure anyone can answer that.
I can say that on a Tecra M2 it does appear that the lcd/crt function switches appear to work as expected.
Now that you mention it, on my T41, both LCD and CRT are always enabled in X, but the switch works in a VC.
Anyone have any idea how to get the switches to work for ATI Radeon Mobility 7500?
Nick, you might try operating the swithces from a VC and then starting or switching back to X.
