I suppose multihead across multiple different graphics cards doesn't fall under the common use case? :) I don't think that's supported by libXrandr yet, is it? I would imagine some power users wanting to use multiple monitors by one being from an integrated intel graphics card on a desktop and the other from an add-on card that is of different brand. As those usually come with two outputs, lets say they have room for three monitors on the desk. That is to say that some might still find one of the *resolution packages useful and removing both at this point doesn't sound like a good idea as proposed in response to the removal of one of them. -- Mart Raudsepp Gentoo Developer Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Weblog: http://planet.gentoo.org/developers/leio
