How can I determine X resolution from CLI without randr?
Does anyone know of a way to determine the current X resolution from the command line, without using randr?
you can grep output of xdpyinfo
or xwininfo -root
or xprop -root
.
I'm not sure if xdpyinfo uses RANDR:
xdpyinfo | grep dimensions:
This one assumes the root window's size is the resolution:
xwininfo -root |egrep 'Width:|Height:'
