even closer still - I can just use xrandr by itself to change the screen |
10 |
size. I thought I had to select a modeline by id using |
11 |
$ xrandr -s 0 -r 51 |
12 |
or so the source says, but I can just do this: |
13 |
$ xrandr -s 1920x1200 |
14 |
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 |
17 |
to get a dual-screen setup, on a dock event... |
