What's stopping xawtv from ordering X to change screen modes, then? With
patch or without, the shift never occurs. The only difference is that with
the patch, you get this black screen with an itty-bitty (relatively) TV
picture in the middle of it. ^_^
Or am I missing something and xawtv is expecting openbox to shift modes for
it? When the last discussion took place, I understood that xawtv was
assuming openbox supported something it didn't, but I didn't understand how
far that assumption went (I guess).
