Hi

I know this one has been done to death but.......

I have a MBP 2.2SR and yesterday I got a LG 22" monitor. Originally I tried to connect via DVI, usual process

Ensure MBP is connected to the mains
Connect Display
Ensure Keyboard is working
Close Lid on MBP
Use space bar to wake up.

This doesnt work, the LG screen is in MBP resolution mirrored and not the LG screen and after a couple of seconds it goes to sleep.

However, I have tried a DVI to HDMI cable and this works fine.

Problem is I also want to connect my iMac to my LG display (2nd screen), again by DVI and this will not work.

Any ideas?
