@seb128, it appears to me that in fact they *do* use the same API into X. Please provide additional references as to the difference in api usage.
gnome-desktop's gnome-rr.c file is a wrapper around libXrandr: #ifdef HAVE_RANDR #include <X11/extensions/Xrandr.h> #endif The xrandr tool also uses libXrandr.h. Both codebases implement similar logic with analogous but not equivalent code, but underneath they're both utilizing libXrandr. So, where a problem exists when using one tool but not the other it does indeed point to something wrong with the utility and not in the underlying X code. ** Package changed: xorg-server (Ubuntu) => gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/737891 Title: gnome-display-properties unable to correctly enable monitors connected to VGA -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
