I'm sitting on the beach in Rincon de Guyabitos, Mexico and I've got a problem. At home I've got an additional monitor attached to my laptop but here all I've got is the laptop. So how the fuck do I get all the shit that I normally view on the remote monitor to show on the laptop screen? I was able to grab the corner of one program and drag it in but other than that I can't see anything else to grab. I mostly want my winamp sos I can listen to some tunes while I'm sitting here.
This is a long shot...
1. Switch the lptp video output to the LCD... it's a combination of Fn+F7/F8 depending on the lptp model
2. Assuming you are using Windowz uncheck the "extend my Windows desktop" from the Desktop properties -> preferences.
3. Get an ipod. Listening to tunes off the laptop is sooo 20th century... :D
uuuuuhhhh...no you don't... turn you laptop into a frisbee and fling it....just listen to the waves roll in...Quote:

You're at the beach. Don't bring your laptop. Period. End of problem.
If I had a jawb I could blow off and forget for 2 1/2 weeks I'd have left the laptop at home. But I've got architects asking for shit by deadlines and electrician/architects asking questions on projects that are under construction with timelines to meet. This way I get to get away from my family and out of the sun for a few minutes to "work" (and peruse the padded room, damn, I forgot how hot Aria is. I saw a young nubian babe at the beach today with nice big titties, a cute face and a smokin bod. My wife called me a pedifile.)
An Ipod would be nice but they don't pick up shoutcast & other stations for shit.
Oh look, another margarita has arrived.
