Look on your BIOS an option to enable IGP(Integrated graphics card) even if an PCIe card is inserted, something like "Ever enable IGP".
And if the option isn't there, check the MB website for an upgraded bios flash.

You other guys are having some odd problems, I've always had my onboard working as long as I had the drivers for it.
OP: Just plug your monitor into your onboard, make sure your onboard is enabled. Linux should pick this up. (It does in windows.)
Poclbm should only show openCL devices. Your 4200 (I hope doesn't) support openCL.

Maybe I did not try enough but only 1 of the 3 my motherboard that I tried still output to onboard when a graphic card is inserted. IMO you are lucky if you can still use onboard while mining.
good luck

As soon as a GPU is inserted in the pci-e outlet, the on-board GPU will deactivate.

consult your motherboard's manual. it should have an option for setting VGA device priority

have a motherboard with an ati, 42 something I think, and 2 5850...
how can I use the onboard for video output and the other 2 just for mining?
using poclbm miner, only shows 3 devices, 2 5850 and cpu =/
ps: ubuntu 11
