Hi Dejan
The kernel parameters below initiate the internal lcd and enalbe x in a way
that you can use the laptop.
I started over in vesa mode with desktop effects enabled -> got window
decoration working and stuff but only in low quality and very slow.
External monitors are also not working at the moment.
cheers
Chewie
