If someone can come up with a scenario where you really need zap, and

grab and won't give it back", I'll even be interested.

The only thing I use Zap for is making the X server restart and pick the
right resolution when I've attached a monitor *after* GDM starts. (This
happens all the time if you've got a KVM switch.)


I have a KVM, and I do not have that problem.


Is there a cleaner way to force EDID probing etc. to happen again? Maybe
we can get a simplified xrandr applet for the GDM screen, or some
automatic "switch to new best resolution" when a monitor is attached?

A better KVM? I think mine correctly reports what's attached.
