The X extension is called RandR. "xrandr" only refers to the command line tool, "XRandR" does not exist. > LXRandR only gives you some easy and quick options which are intuitive. > It's very suitable for laptop users who frequently uses projectors or > external monitor and just want to get their work done without reading > a lot of "geek-centered" manuals or command line tutorials. > > Currently, LXRandR can handle laptop LCD panel, VGA monitor, DVI, and > TV once XRandR extension 1.2 is available for them. > I don't understand this last sentence. Is there a dot missing somewhere? Or you're confusing what the RandR extension does? RandR 1.2 supports any type of output. I just depends on the underlying X driver. If the driver is able to support the HDMI-0 output (some already do), it will appear as usual in RandR 1.2 tools, and I don't see why lxrandr wouldn't see it. However, I don't know how lxrandr decides which outputs is a LCD panel and which one is a TV output, you should be aware that the output names highly depend on the driver.
