I'm sorry, I forgot about that --auto option. Works fine - I tried
enabling/disabling both VGA and LVDS a number of times. The only issue
is that sometimes open windows are jumping around a bit weird. And on
one occasion I had to wait about 30 seconds for an image to re-appear.
I made some suggestions in another thread.
Is there already a GUI for xrandr 1.2? Any plans for autodetecting
external displays?
