New question #46869 on Ubuntu Eee:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/46869

Can we post a more detailed wiki entry for the post of Ferry - configure external monitor when push fn+F5 ?

$VGACONNECTED=`xrandr|grep VGA\ connected`
$VGAMODE could be cut from $VGACONNECTED by [0-9]+x[0-9]+
The condition to test could be: $VGACONNECTED being empty or not.

The commands being cycled through on Fn+F5 could be:
/usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA --mode $VGAMODE --output LVDS --off
/usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA --off --output LVDS --mode 800x480
/usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA --mode $VGAMODE --output LVDS --mode 800x480
