Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Feature Request:

The Gnome panel applet that is turned on by the "Monitor Resolution Settings" dialog should allow the user to switch screen resolutions directly from its drop-down menu.

Presently, it allows for choosing monitor Rotation and flipping for internal and external monitors. I would argue that these choices are of a lower priority than changing which screens are actually set to be on and at what resolution(s).

I use a laptop with support for external VGA. I often plug prefer to plug my laptop into external monitors.

Linux machname 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Gnome 2.24.1
