Hi,

As promised I'm reporting back after testing. I have been running
1.4.9-rc2 for about a week now on my main laptop. I attach and
deattach my external monitor multiple times a day and run a simple
script that just does basic xrandr commands to handle that. So far I
haven't experienced any issues. So to me everything looks good :).


Kind regards,
Joren
