How to turn off laptop screen when using external monitor?

#1 Post by xan »

My notebook is supposed to have a keyboard sequence that switches between notebook screen, external monitor and both working at the same time (FN key + F8).

This works in Windows but not in Puppy, both just stay on. I want to switch the notebook screen off. Is there a way?
