Looks like the last few outputs of the log show the config being
successfully used and number of monitors being detected as 3. Could you
elaborate on what the actual issue is?
Note that for my version of `python-xlib`, I had to use item access rather
than attribute access to get the `get_num_monitors` function to work
correctly, but that appears to not be an issue for you. For documentation's
sake, here's that function:
def get_num_monitors():
num_monitors = 0
try:
display = xdisplay.Display()
screen = display.screen()
resources = screen.root.xrandr_get_screen_resources()._data
for output in resources['outputs']:
monitor = display.xrandr_get_output_info(output,
resources['config_timestamp'])._data
preferred = False
if "preferred" in monitor.keys():
preferred = monitor['preferred']
elif "num_preferred" in monitor.keys():
preferred = monitor['num_preferred']
if preferred:
num_monitors += 1
except Exception:
# always setup at least one monitor
return 1
else:
return num_monitors
