Bug#909916: xfce4-settings: xfce4-display-settings doesn't try to confirm that the new config is working for the user
Package: xfce4-settings
Version: 4.12.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
When changing the display configuration, it is possible to end up in a state
where the system has become unusable, like a bad resolution, or blacking the
only screen available. To avoid that, many other similar tools, after the
change, ask the user if everything is OK, and revert the change after a timeout
without user input.
