the disgruntled Linux surgeon

Here is the final product of myh mergedfb. I can watch a movie on the external monitor while working on the laptop lcd. I can switch dynamically between widescreen and clone. I wrapped the following in a script and added a launcher to do it from the panel (the little monitor button in the panel ).

{{{
#!/bin/bash

if [ `xrandr | grep "*" | gawk '{ print $1 }'` = "1024x768" ] ; then

xrandr -s 1

else

xrandr -s 0

fi
