Not detecting screen resolution #37

Closed StephenLangHall closed 9 months ago

I'm using xrandr to set the screen size (800x600), and when I start monsterwm afterwards, it does not fit the size. It still goes outside the edges of the screen.

.xinitrc:

xrandr --output Virtual-1 --mode 800x600 &
xwallpaper --zoom /root/Files/Images/stream.jpg &
monsterwm

hey there, I have not worked on this project for a long time and afaik there are forks continuing this or derivative or similar work.

Having said this, you may want to chain the commands to make sure that all is in sync

xrandr --output Virtual-1 --mode 800x600 \
  && xwallpaper --zoom /root/Files/Images/stream.jpg \
  && monsterwm
