I think it was not the homepage of the granddr software available in ubuntu universe repository. It is a GTK program, but has some dependencies. It has special licence, by the way. > Another alternative is arandr. Depends only on Python and PyGTK. Perhaps a > little less refined, but works well here, in 2 notebooks with Xubuntu > Karmic. It has nice feature that it can save setting scripts. It and grandr both corrupt my user interface, if I change layout of two outputs many times by them. Arandr may hide xfce4-panel completely. Both have some kind os keyboard shortcut system, but that does not work in Xubuntu. By the way, hardware acceleration is lost here with intel driver, if the playground for the outputs exceeds 2048 x 2048 pixels. I don't know, if the 'add a "Virtual 2048 2048" line in SubSection "Display" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to create a large virtual screen' trick is relevant anymore, though.
