Hello everyone,
I've configured X 6.8.2 on my Notebook in a Dualhead/Xinerama configuration.
I have several places where I use the notebook, one with an external
1920 x 1200 display, one with a 1280 x 1024 display and one place is "on
the road" with no external display at all.
Currently, I have to switch resolutions by hand. Is there any way to
configure X so it automatically switches to the resolution of the
monitor that is connected? And would perhaps shut down the secondary
head if there is no monitor connected at all?
Detection at boot-up time would be sufficient.
Detection at video cable connect time (while the notebook is running)
would be perfect.
Regards,
Andreas
