Robert, I wanted to play around with this on my other 8-CURRENT laptop, but it says: $ xrandr Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". RandR extension missing but it should be there: $ pkg_info | fgrep randr libXrandr-1.3.0 X Resize and Rotate extension library randrproto-1.3.0 Randr extension headers xrandr-1.3.0 Primitive command line interface to the RandR extension $ fgrep -i randr /var/log/Xorg.0.log (II) NVIDIA(0): will be available via XRandR and XF86VidMode): (II) NVIDIA(1): will be available via XRandR and XF86VidMode): (==) RandR enabled (==) RandR enabled (II) Initializing built-in extension RANDR What is wrong?
