You can also use the F7 key to detect displays if I remember correctly. I think it also toggles between windowed and mirrored mode. You might have to hold down the "Fn" key to make this work, depending on how you have access to your function keys set up in System Preferences.

Hi--

When I plug my 12" PowerbookG4 into a large screen, Tiger reconfigures the displays so that both screens are useable. If the Powerbook is closed when I plug it in, however, only the large screen is usable, even if I later open the Powerbook. I have found that I can activate the second screen simply by clicking on the "Detect Displays" button in the "Displays" tab of the "Displays" pane of System Preferences.
