xfce-display-settings

[Jate Sujjavanich]

Thanks, suggestions. John, xrandr program works. Marshall, I have a
different device.

I have information about the exact error message that is occurring when I
try to change display settings. Running dbus-monitor reveals that my
display name having a space ("DISP3 BG") causes an InvalidProperty error.

"Property names can only include the ASCII character A-Z, a-z, 0-9, '_',
'-', '<' and '>' , as well as '/' as a separator"


I am going to attempt to patch xfce4-settings.
