gdk_screen_get_monitor_width_mm returns -1

[Oscar Lazzarino <oscar.lazzarino@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm trying to get the size of a monitor via gdk, but I always get -1
when measuing the size of a single monitor.

With the attached code, I get this result when using multi-monitor

Display has 2 screens
    Screen 0: 524mm x 1200mm --  has 1 monitors
        Monitor 0: 1920 x 1200 -- -1mm x -1mm
    Screen 1: 382mm x 1024mm --  has 1 monitors
        Monitor 0: 1280 x 1024 -- -1mm x -1mm

And this result when using xinerama

Display has 1 screens
    Screen 0: 873mm x 1200mm --  has 2 monitors
        Monitor 0: 1920 x 1200 -- -1mm x -1mm
        Monitor 1: 1280 x 1024 -- -1mm x -1mm

This does not change when I put some DisplaySize in the monitors
section in xorg.conf.

Is this a known bug? Or am I missing something?

Thanks
