 Changing the screen resolution, for one or more monitors, requires an
 restart of the graphics system (GDI, X11...), of course, because it
 affects the desktop and all windows on the monitor(s).

Actual Distros use Randr (and Krandr for KDE)

so no restart is needed

 BTW: That application was seriously full of memory leaks. ;-)

 Attached is a new version, free of memory leaks including a few bug
 fixes. I have tested it successfully under KDE, Gnome, FVWM and XFCE.

Re: [Lazarus] Accessing a scanner

 Hi!

 Has anyone experiences accessing a scanner with lazarus? Perhaps even
 cross-platform?

 I'm dreaming of embedding scanner-functionality in one of our programs.

 Any hint would be appreciated...

 regards
 Lukas

Crossplattform is difficult

Windows uses Twain
(http://home.tiscali.nl/guusscholten/Twain.html)
Linux uses Sane
