Extracts extended display identification data information using the RandR extension. Useful in identifying what monitor is connected to your system.
You need a compiler and the RandR extensions enabled, version 1.3 of the RandR extension is required.
To find out if RandR is enabled, simply call xrandr
(from
x11-xserver-utils
in Debian) or grep for RANDR in your X.Org
server log (usually somewhere in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
).
If RandR is not yet enabled in xorg, you can enable it by adding:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "RandR" "on"
EndSection
Simply call make
