Description Jakob Schiotz 2003-12-18 02:50:41 UTC

Apparently, kdebase does not include tools for changing screen resolution on the fly using the RandR extension to X (very useful when giving talks using projectors that don't like my resolution).  Other distros, such as Fedora or suse, include krandrtray, and it appears to be a part of KDE on kde.org.  Is there a reason for it not being in Gentoo, or does it need to be manually enabled in the ebuilds?

I miss it :-)

Comment 1 Jakob Schiotz 2003-12-18 03:01:00 UTC

I apologize.  I now see that krandrtray is not part of KDE 3.1.4, but of the CVS version of KDE.  The other distros must have backported it.  I suppose this means that it will appear in KDE 3.2, when that is released.

Best regards

Jakob
