Hello,

What controls the screen output to an external monitor connected to a
laptop during boot or when just using a plain console without an X
server running? Before a recent update the output would just
automatically go to an external monitor when one is connected. Now it
does not; not sure it has anything to do with the openrc migration.

I do get output onto the external monitor after startx runs; also the X
server/clients work fine.

Thanks for inputs.

PS: fn+F8 for switching displays does not work either; but it never did
before.
