[15:03] <chrisccoulson> pitti - is bug 454487 ok for a SRU?

[15:03] <chrisccoulson> stgraber has already tested the patch and confirms it works
[15:03] <chrisccoulson> (the patch is in my PPA currently, but i will prepare a debdiff later)
[15:06] <seb128> chrisccoulson, seems a good sru candidate indeed
[15:06] <chrisccoulson> cool, thanks!
[15:07] <pitti> chrisccoulson: sounds fine; how intrusive is it?
[15:07] <pitti> chrisccoulson: i. e. regression potential for normal local usage?
[15:07] <chrisccoulson> pitti - the patch is here: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34294574/gnome-desktop_1%3A2.28.1-0ubuntu2_1%3A2.28.1-0ubuntu3~chrisccoulson1.diff.gz
[15:08] <chrisccoulson> it just traps X errors when calling XRRGetScreenResources
[15:08] <chrisccoulson> under these circumstances, the xrandr plugin would be disabled
[15:09] <pitti> chrisccoulson: seems fine
