Comment 2 for bug 619897

Hi kinkerl
There's been a gnome-panel applet around for a while that basically does the same (nice initiative, though).

You can check out the source here:
bzr branch lp:~nmellegard/disper/disper-applet-menu-icons

The above branch contains both disper (in the root folder) and disper-applet (in a subfolder). To install disper-applet, just switch to disper-applet and type 'sudo make install'. Though, disper must obviously also be installed on the system...

The applet was started by a Eugene Arshinov a while back. I've modified it to use menu icons and to build the menu dynamically depending on the current monitor config.

Feel free to hack away on it if you like...

Cheers
N
