xrandr

[Russell Shaw]

Hi,
In xorg.conf, i have: Option "PreferredMode"  "1920x1200"


It won't work. Xorg starts with a lower resolution.


I had to add this mode beforehand with: xrandr --addmode 1920x1200
but the "PreferredMode"  "1920x1200" in xorg.conf still doesn't work.


If i do: xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1920x1200
from within X, then the monitor gets set correctly, but the icewm taskbar
moves to the right monitor (of a dual setup).
