Comment 20 for bug 619897

Hi guys

First, sorry for my complete absence (been working on my thesis...). Dennis, are you still working on this?

I have been thinking about this a bit, and was wondering whether it would be possible to use Disper and write a back-end to the existing monitor-management-application in gnome (System->preferences->Monitors). The monitor-manager is quite nice, and it seems (from what I can tell) that Disper pretty much provides all features needed.
I've made a (quite half-assed) effort to try to locate the source code for the application to see if it would be possible to extend it with another back-end, but haven't managed to find which project it's part of...

I know this is going in a quite different direction from disper-applet/indicator, but if it would be possible to hook into the official(?) gnome tool for managing monitors it'd be a better solution, wouldn't it? Does anyone know if this has been looked into before?

Cheers
N
