I use my lenovo R61 laptop setup as dual monitor setup with one external Dell monitor. I like the Laptop display to be the primary display when on the docking station. Everytime I boot up the laptop not on the docking station only using the laptop display, then when I boot it back up on the docking station it makes the external dell monitor the primary display. Everytime I have to go the the Nvidia Deskop manager and set the laptop display back as the primary display. Is there anyway to keep the laptop display always the primary screen?

Remove the display cord from the docking station.
