Hello,
I was looking for a solution to invoke autorandr when a monitor
gets attached/detached. Unfortunately this emits no event that our
hotplugd(8) can catch.
Today I stumbled over srandrd, and it's solving this issue in a nice and
clean way.
$ cat pkg/DESCR
-----
srandrd is a tool that executes a command on xrandr output change
events, i.e. if a monitor is plugged or unplugged. By default srandrd
forks to background and exits if the xserver exits.
-----
You can drop "srandrd some_script.sh" into .xsession and it will run this
script when X output changes happen.
Inside the script, you have variables available to filter and react to
specific events. How that works is described in srandrd(1).
Comment/OK for import?
Best Regards,
Stefan
