the dialog for now is simple and lets you just raw edit the properties
per screen in a dialog. nothing fancy. not user firendly. but it works.
the randr core has been totally rewritten and tested against a range
of drivers and setups before even getting a commit. it works solidly
and configures screens reliably now. drivers tested:
nvidia
intel
radeon
some drivers still are unreliable in terms of delivering plug/unplug
events for outputs (both intel and radeon are flakey - nvidia is solid
and reliable). so to fix this there is now a screen redo action you
can bind to a hotkey or something and have e re-evaluate current
screen setup and apply ny pending config if needed.
also to make reconfiguring prettier the screen is faded to black
first, then configured, then faded back in. some drivers work
flawlessly with this, others still flicker some garbage.
i admit - i haven't tested nouveau, but my general take on this is the
randr code is now in far better shape than where it was (minus pretty
and easy dialog). the dialog can be done next, but i'd like to get the
core in now for more testing.
@fix
NB: IT IS NOT COMPLETE, DOES NOT APPLY SETTINGS, AND STILL NEEDS LOTS
OF WORK. Don't bother reporting bugs for it just yet, until it is
fully functional. Just adding it to svn in the hopes (hahahaha) that
others may want to jump in and help speed things along.
