Because then I could turn off the polling for the time being, or at least reduce the polling interval. With regard to the events: I've tried using udev to react to the hotplug events, but it wouldn't work reliably. It would successfully recognize a monitor the first time, but fail to trigger on disconnect or later connect attempts. So unfortunately, my approach was and probably is the only viable/reliable here to do it automatically. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
