I look at version 1.2 of sonyxosd on your site.
(http://files.sony-tools.homeunix.net/sony/_versions/sonyxosd-1.2)

You took into account my remark concerning the switch from the LCD to an
external CRT (called vga in your code). But your scrolling sequences
iteration concerns 4 states instead of 3 in my case. You added the
sequence LCD off and CRT off. I am not sure that it is necessary. Let us
number the 4 states: 
      4    1    2      3
LCD off   on   on    off
CRT off  off   on     on

My preferred sequences are (4) 1 2 3 1 2 3...
and yours is 4 1 3 2 4 1 3 2...
And with yours, pushing successively twice Fn F7 gives you twice a blank
screen (3 and 4) which makes people confusing when plugging a video
projector. I just look at the sequences on Windows and they are the same
as mine 1 2 3 1 2 3 etc.

Also, I think that at boot time the radeon is set to state 2 (on, on)
wheter a CRT is plugged or not. So I am not sure that your 'control'
state is necessary because it is set by default to 'control' and not to
'on'.

Cheers,
