Re: [RP] ratpoison-1.4.9-rc2

[Joren Van Onder]

Hi,

I'm currently running ratpoison in a multiple screen setup, so I wouldn't mind testing. But I did not follow the full discussion or diffs so I'm not sure exactly what to test. I gather that now ratpoison will use xrandr, but what differences are there for a user? Will ratpoison somehow automatically detect when another screen is plugged in or do we still have to use the 'restart' command?

Kind regards,

Joren

Hi,

The xrandr branch has been merged, ratpoison now uses Xrandr to keep
track of screens at runtime.  I guess it means a bit of testing is
needed before the 1.4.9 release.

Why "rc2"?  Because I published rc1 tarballs yesterday but found more
stuff to tweak in the meantime.

Please report back, successful reports are welcome, especially for
multiple screens setup.  Even reports about Xinerama setups would be
interesting (no idea how those behave right now).

So here are the tarballs:
