Hi,
I was wondering if there was any way to use a television as a second monitor, not just an identitacl image of my notebook display. I use an iBook 600 with the TV adapter, and the adapter itself works fine, it's just that it might be handy to be able to use it in the way I described above. I'm not sure what kind of display I have, but I THINK it's a Rage ATI or something.. Thanks for the help, Vollrath |

If you are on OS X go to system prefs and then to displays. Click on arangment and un check mirror displays. This should work on your 16 meg video card. My pismo only has 8 megs and I use a 2nd monitor everyday for expanded desktop space. It is possible the ibook doesn't support this, you didnt say which model you had. I believe there are three. Good luck
