Hi Andrey & Neal,
Another command that might be helpful is wmctrl, from the man page:
wmctrl is a command that can be used to interact with an X Window manager that is compatible with the EWMH/NetWM specification. wmctrl can query the window manager for information, and it can request that certain window management actions be taken.
And here is something I use to resize and position an X2GO session on one monitor:
wmctrl -r X2GO -e 0,0,0,3768,2123
Regards, Michael

Hi Neal, Here how I do it: $cat ~/bin/setdisplaymode #!/bin/bash # if [ -z $1 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 mode, e.g:" echo "$0 1920x1200" echo "$0 1680x1050" echo "$0 1280x1024" echo "$0 1280x960" exit -1 fi MODE=$1 # find a connected monitor # MONITOR="

Let's say I started an x2go session (xfce) from my laptop, which happens to be 1920x1600. Later I connect to that same session, this time using a monitor with say 3840x2160. Now I need to resize everything. Going the other way is even worse. How do you handle this? Thanks, Neal
