Xrandr

  • With recent version of Xorg, manual configuration of the xorg.conf file is almost no longer needed. Xrandr kicks in, retrieves information from the monitor and configures Xorg accordingly.
  • The HorizSync, VertRefresh, Modes and Modeline options have been deprecated (although Modeline can still be used with the Option "Preferred Mode"); the only thing that is currently needed now is the Virtual option.
  • The xrandr command line is quite useful.
