I've finally come around to trying config-0-0-1-branch and driconf, and
I must say I'm impressed. Here's some feedback:
driconf doesn't deal very gracefully with being unable to find xdriinfo:
sh: line 1: xdriinfo: command not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./driconf", line 25, in ?
driconf.main()
File "./driconf.py", line 669, in main
dpy = dri.DisplayInfo ()
File "./dri.py", line 289, in __init__
nScreens = int(XDriInfo ("nscreens", dpy))
File "./dri.py", line 55, in XDriInfo
raise DRIError ("xdriinfo not found")
dri.DRIError: xdriinfo not found
As for the GUI, GTK2 would be much nicer. :) Seriously though, it took
me a while to find out how to use it. It wasn't obvious that the
checkboxen are only for selection of the entries to change. A way to see
the default value for each option would be nice. And having to select a
config file for saving it feels awkward, just save to the file which is
the parent node of the selected app?
While these are mostly cosmetic, the worse problem is that the attached
~/.drirc written by driconf doesn't work:
libGL error:
Warning in /home/michdaen/.drirc line 1, column 0: unknown element: dri.
libGL error:
Warning in /home/michdaen/.drirc line 2, column 4: <device> should be
inside <driconf>.
And the glxgears spin at full steam.
Keep up the good work!
