getting X resolution from ~/.xsession?

clone DVI output on an (ati) Inspiron 9300
Hi, Using the latest debian unstable packages, I'm trying to clone the display of my Dell Inspiron 9300 (Radeon Mobility M300) to its DVI output.

why does xdm does not honor pam_env.so?
Hi, This is driving me crazy, as I haven't been able to find a rational answer anywhere on the Net. /etc/pam.d/xdm contains "auth required pam_env.so" which means it is supposed to parse /etc/environment and pass on its variables to the shells spawned from the wm. This works fine in /etc/pam.d/su or /etc/pam.d/ssh. Try it! From an xterm's shell the contents of /etc/environment are not set. However if you "su" to another user, then all of /etc/environment is set in the shell. What should I do to get that in xdm?

that damn debian xlibs/openbox bug!
Hi, Starting with version 4.3.0.dfsg.1-5 of debian xlibs, openbox overlay panels are broken: switching desktops of alt-tab'ing keeps the transient panel focused and in the forground until ENTER is pressed. This seems to be a debian bug, as several xfree changelogs referred to that bug as fixed. However we are now at version 4.3.0.dfsg.1-9 and nothing has changed. I have to peg xlibs at version 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4 to keep my openbox functional. Additionnaly the debian BTS seems to no longer carry that bug, even in the "resolved" list. Is someone aware of the situation? Is there a workaround for that bug? Should I re-open it in the BTS? Thanks,
