even closer still - I can just use xrandr by itself to change the screen size. I thought I had to select a modeline by id using $ xrandr -s 0 -r 51 or so the source says, but I can just do this: $ xrandr -s 1920x1200 and voila! That's enough to go to one screen without the panning. Now I need to figure out how to probe the second monitor, and use xrandr to get a dual-screen setup, on a dock event... -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> A study showed the leading causes of death in the United States are: 1:Heart disease 2:Chuck Norris 3:Cancer
