So if you ask xrandr you can find out what's connected where and it's resolution and physical dimensions
So with an external monitor connected to my laptop xrandr gives the following output: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1792, maximum 2048 x 2048 VGA connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 376mm x 301mm 1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0 59.9 1280x960 59.9 1152x864 75.0 74.8 1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 75.0 72.8 66.7 60.0 720x400 70.1 LVDS connected 1024x768+0+1024 (normal left inverted right) 304mm x 228mm 1024x768 60.0*+ 800x600 60.3 640x480 59.9 TV disconnected (normal left inverted right) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ So of the 3 outputs on my display 2 are connected the physical dimensons of each are correctly reported but when I fire up ogle it gets the following Note[ogle_vout]: Using 'X11' as source for geometry Note[ogle_vout]: Using 'Xinerama' as source for resolution Note[ogle_vout]: Display w: 401, h: 601, hp: 1024, vp: 768 Note[ogle_vout]: Display sar: 615424/307968 = 1.998337 Note[ogle_vout]: Found 8 matching visuals, using visual id:23 so while maximising windows works correctly to a single screen the video aspect is displayed incorrectly -- GRANT DIFFEY SUN PROACTIVE TECHNICAL ENGINEER FRONTLINE SYSTEMS AUSTRALIA 20 BUSINESS PARK DRIVE NOTTING HILL VIC 3168 T. 03 8710 0381 F. 03 9793 3813 M. 0424 908 336 www.frontline.com.au <http://www.frontline.com.au> CONFIDENTIALITY This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
