That appears to me as quite a regression for laptop users. Especially today on newer laptops with all the non-standard widescreen display sizes. Can't the keyboard part of X.org intercept the keys for switching between monitors (Fn+F8) and execute the correct xrandr commands to toggle the display on and off? > The only thing that could considered missing here from my point of > view is a way to say in xorg.conf "if a VGA monitor is present, > disable LVDS". Apart from that, the behavior looks coherent to me. > Yes it's different than before, but it is still coherent. Coherent, yes. But from an end-user point-of-view it's not as usable. Now I need to manually reset my screen resolution everytime I switch from internal monitor to external monitor between boots, while on Etch everything worked fine. -- Sander Marechal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
