Another kick ass thing about my OSX 10.5.6 on Lenovo X60T : External monitor instantly detected

I just connected my Lenovo X60T to my 24 inch DELL UltraSharp display under OSX 10.5.6, and saw the monitor being instantly recognized. Changing the resolution, and now I got full 1920 x 1200 second monitor video support. This will be totally awesome for XCode development!

On the negative side, I tried the audio fix listed here and found that it didn't work for me. It crashed my machine, but the system was recovered afterward. So .... still seraching for the right solution.

BTW, from the information here, it seems like people are implying that my x60t's sound driver should be AD1981.

Wow, guess what! The Sound is suddenly showing up on my OSX! All I did was boot into Windows 7, and then boot back into OSX! Now I am a bit confused. Is it the ALC880 things that I tried suddenly start working? (but it crashed during bootup), or the AC97 things start working AFTER I first boot back to Vista? Really confused.

But I think I better make a backup on this working parition first before anything go south. In addition, I am all planning to do some crazy experiment tomorrow, including trying to do a regular Apple System update and see if the OSX can hold it well.

Some info that I may find useful in the future:
