Looks reasonable enough to me overall, although I know very little about
X. That's a pretty wide net you're using to catch exceptions, but I
suppose the idea is to take a stab at it and just move along if there's
a problem. Since you're logging the exception we'll hopefully be able to
fix non-xrandr problems pretty easily, which is good. Ack.
