We are using gtk app, and that's how we are notified whenever the screen is rotated.

Since these apps can exist without a window manager running, what X events does an app need to listen to inorder to draw correctly to the new size OR are apps oblivious to resolution/rotation changes and this is handled at a much lower level?
