Docked vs. Undocked Laptop running Linux

by dan.schultz . Updated 20 years, 10 months ago

I want to know how to have Linux recognize that it is booting in either a Docked or Undocked mode similar to that found in the MS Windows world. I have cruised the HOWTOs: and while there are some tidbits of info, none really gives me a good idea ofhow to go about it. The docking station has a external monitor, NIC, a standard 105-key keyboard and a track ball mouse. Somewhat different setup than that found on the laptop in a undocked configuration. Anyone with some words of wisdom will be greatly appreciated by this “Linux newbie”.
