Hi,
Does anyone know how to get the current display resolution under Linux? I'm guessing it's going to involve importing C and doing X11 API junk since ExamineDesktop() doesn't work.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers,
G.

It was unsupported in PB5.0, so is it in 5.1 that it works? Or do I have it wrong? The documentation says it's only for Windows & OSX.

Yep, my bad. It only the DesktopFrequency() that doesn't support Linux. I think I've been staring at my monitor for too long. I'm going outside for fresh air.
