Bob,
Does this only work with 4.1? I'm on 4.0 and xrandr gives me a "Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display" error.

Hi all,

With the new SRSS one of the best changes was the introduction of the XRandR
extension.

But we noticed the available modes in XRandR don't get updated when you
insert your card in another Sun Ray.

Is there a way to insert custom modes or force the mode list to update upon
reinsertion?

No, not today. Perhaps in our next release.

In the meantime, what most people want is simply to have the desktop resize automatically upon hotdesking. That also may come in our next release.

For 4.1, I've attached a small script I've written which does this. It won't work for multihead but it works for typical cases. To use it, simply launch a utaction in each session at startup which runs this script upon every session connect:
utaction -c utfit &

For Linux, you should replace the "nawk" instances with "gawk", and you may need to tweak PATH to add some directories for Linux.

If anybody feels like enhancing this please feed back your work to the list.
Useful additions I'd like to see but don't have time right now:
- platform independence (i.e. choose nawk vs gawk based on Solaris vs Linux and an all-inclusive $PATH)
- multihead

-Bob
