Sorry, I posted in haste. When I say 'int' and 'ext' I mean LCD and
VGA/CRT.

Output:

# cat /proc/acpi/ibm/video
status:         supported
lcd:            disabled
crt:            disabled
dvi:            disabled
auto:           disabled
commands:       lcd_enable, lcd_disable
commands:       crt_enable, crt_disable
commands:       dvi_enable, dvi_disable
commands:       auto_enable, auto_disable
commands:       video_switch, expand_toggle

Linux 3.13.5

I'm currently upgrading to last stable kernel to see if there's a
difference.
