Sony Laptop

Can anyone help?

i have a sony laptop model vgn-fw140e, installed linux mandriva9,ubuntu8.4,and finally i have fedora10, they installed with no problem but when i reboot i get a blank white screen.
if i connect a monitor i am able to login with no problem, i can view external monitor but not the laptop screen. the display adapter is a Mobile Intel(R) 4 Express Chipset.
i would appreciate some help.

Are you saying your laptop screen is white with all three Linux distros, or just Fedora? Also can you post the contents of your /etc/x11/xorg.conf.
