Per 'man srandrd', if started with 'srandrd -v -n some_script', it
should output some debug data (-v), stay in foreground (-n) and invoke
some_script when monitor is being plugged or unplugged. It does not
work for me. Something happens just when I invoke 'xrandr' in another
terminal - I see some debug output, but the script is not invoked.

Is anybody here using x11/srandrd? I can debug the script invocation,
but if the event is not detected without external intervention, it is
not really usable for me. And I have no experience with debugging the
issue in graphics stack...

I'm using srandrd to recenter my wallpapers when I configure an external monitor (I always do it manually with either arandr or xrandr).

I just start srandrd like this:

srandrd -e -n ~/bin/srandrd-handler

~/bin/srandrd-handler is a shell script with an executable bit set and it contains only the following:

#! /bin/sh -
feh --no-fehbg --bg-center --image-bg 'black' "${HOME}/wallpaper.png"

Good luck!
