[ale] Basic Laptop for presentations question

[Greg Freemyer]

I've got it hooked to a projector now and it did auto-detect on boot.

Function-F8 seems to have no effect.

I'm still curious how to get Impress to realize I have 2 monitors.  I
assume it can have presenter notes on the laptop screen and just the
slides on the projector.

Under slide show settings, there is a pull down for multiple monitors,
but it is grayed out, even though I have it hooked to the projector.
