Hi,
I was reading some reviews of other distributions, and they had a graphical "control panel" that allowed you to change your resolution without restarting X11.
Does Debian have anything like that?
if you're using sid and KDE 3.2 you can use krandrtray. I remember that gnome had one too, but I don't remember the details.
OK, I found gvidm[1] (doesn't depend on Gnome), but it only changes the resolution of the screen, but the resolution of the X desktop.
Does anyone know if krandrtray will change the desktop resolution also?

Description: Gtk app to quickly and easily change video resolutions in X.
Running gvidm will pop up a list of available modes and allows the user
to select one if desired. This makes it perfect for running from an
application menu or a hotkey, so you don't have to use ram for an applet
constantly running. If you are running dual or multi-head displays, it
will give you a list of screens so you can select the appropriate one.
