Hey all,

I'm considering buying a docking station for use with my Thinkpad T41p. 
I'm currently running Gentoo Linux and use KDM on boot up to log in.

My question is, if I buy the docking station, plug my thinkpad into it 
and start up will KDM come up on my external monitor or on the LCD. When 
I plug a monitor it comes up on the LCD. Very annoying.

In Windows, if you boot up on the dockingstation with the laptop closed 
the video comes up on the external monitor.

TIA,
--
