insomniaX / HDTV Question

[redkulat]

Hey there guys, I have a question about insomniaX for the people who are familiar with it.

I like to connect my Macbook to my HDTV (through DVI -> HDMI), but when I am running insomniaX it doesn't seem to connect to the TV.

Just as a refresher: insomniaX puts the display of the computer to sleep, not the whole computer. However, I want the display of the Macbook to sleep but visible on the HDTV.

Is this possible?

You don't need a 3rd part app for that.
Just close you MB, connect the DVI cable to it then waking your MB up by connecting a USB device (Anything will do).

This'll make the Macbook use only the external display.

Alternatively, you can wake up the MB by using the Apple Remote. After the MB is woken, you can open the lid and it'll remain off.

I moved the folder with the kext to a backup corner of my HD, ... point of view rather then the need to actually ask the question from the developer.
