Hi,
My simple script

#!/bin/bash

IN="LVDS1"
EXT="VGA1"

case "$1" in
    on)
        xrandr --output $IN --off --output $EXT --auto
        ;;
    1440)
        xrandr --output $IN --off --output $EXT --mode 1440x900
        ;;
    1280)
        xrandr --output $IN --off --output $EXT --mode 1280x1024
        ;;
    off)
        xrandr --output $EXT --off --output $IN --auto
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: $0 {on/off}\n"
        exit 2
esac

Hello.
I have a Dell laptop, for which I have 2 docking stations (at home and at
work), both with additional monitor connected. The monitors differ in
resolution. I do not turn my laptop off, I only suspend it to RAM, when it is
not used.
Let's consider such scenario: laptop is docked at home. Xrandr shows available
resolution for external screen properly. I turn off the external output
(xrandr --output VGA1 --off), then I suspend it, undock and take to work,
where I dock again to another docking port and wake it up.
The problem is, that the laptop does not re-read the resolution configuration then. it shows resolutions from the monitor which I have at home, not at work. I think that after the machine wakes up, it gets no "display changed" message, which is pretty logical. ButThen The only way I can have the data "fixed" is
to unplug the monitor physically and plug it back. And I dont like such
solution, that's not what docking station is for.

Can I somehow make xrandr refresh its readings?
