T420s + 2 monitor + integrated screen setup. How make it work?

Hi All.
I'm trying to make my T420s with integrated grahpics only work in a 3 screen setup. Im using no docking station but the configuration is said to be supported. But the software simply switches of one monitor when i activate the other and vise versa. The Intel grahpics and media software doesnt seem to even support a 3 screen configuration.
Anyone knows how to make it work?
regards from sweden.

OK. Just to get things clear since I always thought that the T420s with Intel integrated grahpics only would be able to drive 3 simultanious screens with one beeing the internal screen, while the T420s with Optimus is able to drive 4 if used with a docking station.
But apparently, the Intel integrated only version seems to be able to drive only two simultaneous screens, while the Optimus version is able to drive 3 without a dock and 4 with a dock. Correct?

  • PC & Mac Sharing 1 Monitor and KB Setup - How to use KB/Mouse for both?

    I am purchasing a Mac Mini to replace my personal computer. I have one monitor/KB/mouse setup shared between my work and personal PC, switched back and forth via a USB KVM switch (http://www.iogear.com/product/GCS632U/)
    I want to go with the Apple bluetooth mouse and keyboard with the purchase of my mac mini, but how can I make it so it will work with both my work PC (Windows XP Dell laptop docked) and my new mac mini?
    Should I purchase a USB bluetooth dongle and connect that to the mini KVM switch? Or should I just plug the USB dongle into my docked laptop and pair with both the mini and the PC (if pairing to both is even possible)?
    Thanks in advance.

    If both are on your intranet, try Synergy.
    I personally use the Wormhole.  You can drag between desktops.

  • ThinkVantage: What Does It Do? How Make It Work?

    On the T400, what does the ThinkVantage button do?
    How can I make it work?    When I press it now, nothing happens.    The original windows operating system that came with this computer is no longer installed.   I got it without an operating system and I put Linux Ubuntu on it.      This computer may not even have the original hard drive.      The hard drive on it now is only 40GB.

    >> Lenovo doesn't provide ThinkVantage software with drivers and applications that will install on top of Linux distribution operating systems?
    No.
    I did write: Lenovo provides the ThinkVantage software as part of the drivers and applications that are installed on top of Windows.
    I did also write: Lenovo never releases any ThinkPad drivers and applications for Linux.

    Hi,
    To debug it on production, can you check on the hot-deployment area of Spaces apps to validate the shared library reference is updated in weblogic.xml is picked up:
    WebCenter_Domain_Home/servers/WC_Spaces/tmp/_WL_user/webcenter_11.1.1.4.0/<depl_prefix>/war/WEB-INF/weblogic.xml
    - Substitute respective depl_prefix with latest hot deployment folder created inside WebCenter_Domain_Home/servers/WC_Spaces/tmp/_WL_user/webcenter_11.1.1.4.0 directory for your instance.
    Cross verify the shared library reference for the ADF taskflow is reflected in the weblogic.xml for the Spaces server to reflect it.

  • Dual screen setup: How to set a primary display?

    I've got an HDTV and a 30" monitor connected (the latter being at 2560x1600 resolution).
    But no matter whether the TV is actually on or not, the monitor never gets to be the first display, and instead either shows the extended desktop, or when set to mirroring (whtn the TV is on) it's on HD (1920x1200) resolution.
    In Windows 7 I can simply say which display is the main display.
    I tried swapping cables around, but no success.
    Any ideas what I could try?

    Have you tried messing around with System Preferences, Displays, Arrangement?

  • [Solved] How make to work League of Legends on Arch x64?

    Hello,
    I was trying to install LoL by using PlayOnLinux. The wiki describes it as "the easiest method." ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Le … nux_Method ).
    Unfortunately I cannot figure this out. I installed LoL just fine, I updated it, but when I'm clicking "Play" button, then I'm getting exception:
    ALSA lib dlmisc.c:252:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib32/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00001ff0 at address 0x1ff0 (thread 0043), starting debugger...
    I was trying different wine versions without luck. It's hard to find anything useful about this by using google.
    Anyone have any idea how to make it to work with playonlinux?

    @luken trial-and-error method using speaker-test I would argue. Usually it should copy the front jack signal. Here are just a few:
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:0,0
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:0,1
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:0,2
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:1,0
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:1,1
    speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:1,2
    # Depending on your setup, it might be necessary to use 8 channels with -c 8.
    # Or in script form
    MX=2;MY=3;
    for X in $(seq 0 $MX); do for Y in $(seq 0 $MY); do speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D dmix:$X,$Y; done; done
    Should this not work, then you may want to look at hdajackretask from alsa-tools package and copy the front jack to the headphone one or disable jack sensing.

    You are welcome.
    @Kobibr I fail to see what a tutorial and patch for wine for textures has to do with this thread. It is nice to see people getting involved though.

  • How make ALL work?

    Hi there,
    Below is the syntax I got to know as to how one can have ALL as additional option in Dropdown or ListBox. However do not know how to make that ALL work. I mean to say that when ALL is selected, how can I have all the values passed/filtered to the data source?
    LISTBOX_3.setItems(
        DS_2.getMemberList("_dbY_ASwZEeS6mO4guBZEDA", MemberPresentation.EXTERNAL_KEY, MemberDisplay.KEY, 20,"ALL")
    Regards,
    Tejas

    Hi Tejas,
    Give an if condition in the  On Select of LISTBOX_3 and pass the filter value as blank when "ALL" is selected:
    if(LISTBOX_3.getSelectedValue()=="All"){
      DS_2.setFilter("_dbY_ASwZEeS6mO4guBZEDA", "");
    else {
          DS_2.setFilter("_dbY_ASwZEeS6mO4guBZEDA", LISTBOX_3.getSelectedValue());
    Let me know if it works for you.

  • How to setup mail client in Data Integrator 11.7 to make use of mail_to()

    How to setup mail client in Data Integrator 11.7 to make use of mail_to() function.
    I am using mail_to() function in one of my job to know the status of source file. If source file is not ready, our DI job should fail and send mail notification with reason for failure.
    But mail_to() function is not sending any mail. I guess I need to set up email client.
    Any one please help to resolve this issue.
    Thanks
    Phani

    From the DI documentation that comes with the installation:
    To use this function, a mail client must be installed and running on the Job
    Server computer that calls the function. The login account for the mail client
    must have the same user name and password as the Data Integrator service.
    The type of client varies by the operating system:
    u2022 If the Job Server is on a computer running the Windows operating
    system, then the mail client must comply with MAPI (message application
    programming interface). In addition, the mail client must be configured as
    the default mail client. For example, Microsoft Outlook is a MAPI-based
    mail client.
    If the Job Server is on a computer running the UNIX operating system,
    then the mail client must be mailx-compliant.
    So:
    Mail client installed and configured and set as default
    Mail client uses the same credentials as the job server service
    Or use another function: smtp_to();
    If still not working or you are not allowed to use an installed mailclient on your box, then try Blat: http://www.blat.net/

  • I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen.  How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

    I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen.  How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

    Dear Jean:
    It sounds like you are trying to get your external monitor to act as the primary viewing screen. For example it would have your Doc, Icons, Etc. In order to make the external monitor the primary screen you have to:
    Open System Preferences.
    Choose the Displays Icon
    There will be several tabs to choose from pick Arrangement
    Drag the toolbar to desired display
    Let me know if this helps at all!

  • I cracked my screen. I want to use other monitor which I had one. I bought Apple Mini-DP to VGA adapter. It worked. It means I can see ADDITIONAL screen. However I want to use this monitor for the main screen. How can I do?? Please help.

    I cracked my screen. I want to use other monitor which I had one. I bought an Apple Mini-DP to VGA adapter. It worked. It means I can see ADDITIONAL screen. However I want to use this monitor for the main screen. How can I do?? Please help.

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the monitor. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the monitor and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the monitor your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.

    Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.

  • I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

    Hi j2399123,
    It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
    Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
    For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
    Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
    And for screen recording specifically, there's
    QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen

    Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

  • I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have had this same problem for weeks now with my 4S.  I just got a new 5S after being extremely frustrated and the same thing - no sounds.  After searching posts all over, I couldn't find a solution. I just told my friend of the issue and he asked "Do you have the Do Not Distrub on?"  I didn't even know such a function existed.  Upon looking that was exactly the issue.
    To resolve, go to Settings> Do Not Disturb> Manual.  If it is green, turn it off.  You will now get phone calls and text alerts.
    This functionality is also on your quick access utility menu (slide up menu).  I assume this is how it was enabled on my phone.
    I will post on other sites since I searched for weeks for this solution and didn't see it anywhere.  Good luck!

  • What is a Selection Screen and how to make it ?

    What is a Selection Screen and how to make it ? Please explain the process.
    Best regards,
    Ryan

    Selection Screen are used for the program reports. These allows you to input some values that are required to show the desired output.
    for example : you want to show the list of sales orders between 1000 to 1999, you would write a select query as this (to make u understand better)
    select vbeln from vbak into it_vbeln
                 where vbeln GE 1000 " greater than or equal to
                   and vbeln LE 1999. " less than or equal to
    now if you wnat to do it dynamically, you need a selection screen
    tables : vbak. " declaration
    selection-screen : begin of block block1 with frame title text-003.
    select-options : so_vbeln for vbak-vbeln. " selection range from __ to __
    selection-screen : end of block block1.
    now you can write the same select query as
    select vbeln from vbak into it_vbeln
                 where vbeln in so_vbeln.
    Hope this is clear now

  • How make a video of my screen movements?

    In the Windows world, I could/can use Windows Media Encoder to make a video of my screen along with my mouse movements, and voice... e.g. to send someone a mini training clip of what's on my screen.
    How can I do this in the Mac world, please? Since Mac is way better at A/V stuff than Windows, I'm sure it's a piece of cake.
    Thanks.

    for now you need 3rd party software (this ability will be built in in snow leopard).
    check this link for example
    http://nunojob.wordpress.com/2008/01/02/screencast-app-for-mac-os-x-leopard/
    I haven't tried any of them so can't recommend anything first hand.
