Restart GKrellm on screen resolution change in KDE

Hi all!
Any trusty GKrellm wizards still out there? Or KDE mastahs?
I much prefer GKrellm and dockapps for my system monitor needs and currently use the former as a panel in the top right corner on my KDE 4.5 desktop. It works great except for screen resolution changes where switching from larger to smaller resolutions and vice versa breaks the alignment to the right border of the screen.
My question is if there is a lean way, either through GKrellm, KDE or even bash/d-bus or similar to restart GKrellm (which is fast and good enough a solution for me) when I change resolution? Any ideas?
I wish KDE had as an option for "on resolution change, execute X". Come to think of it, I would like KDE to offer this option for power management state switches as well. Hmm, perhaps there should be a generalized "state-based" daemon for launching arbitrary external commands in KDE much like the tools available on Android phones these days, like Tasker, Locale and Setting Profiles...

No hints for how to do this? What about in Gnome?

  • Screen resolution changes on iphone 4s after downloading OS 6.

    Screen resolution changes on iphone 4s after downloading OS 6. Can't see entire home screen. I must reboot to restore original resolution, but while zoomed I can't see the ok button. What is the fix?

    No one here knows when the next iOS update will be released or what changes it will include until Apple releases it.
    iOS 6.1.2 does not disable Wi-Fi, the vast majority of issues with iPhones that appear after an iOS update can be resolved with basic troubleshooting which is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
    If that does not resolve, then the issue is hardware related and no amount of iOS updates or restores will ever get it functional again.

  • Facebook screen resolution changes automatically everytime on Mozilla Firefox 4. Other websites opens fine.

    I have recently updated to Firefox 4. I am having many problems with this version.
    I am unable to use Facebook properly. The Facebook screen resolution changes every time automatically. The screen resolution gets very big.
    When I open the FB site the resolution will be fine as soon I open another tab to check other website and roll back to the FB tab the screen resolution gets big and can't get back to normal view.
    I have to close the FB tab and open a new tab to put the FB URL to use it. When I try to view other tabs and then open the FB tab the screen resolution is changed.
    I have problem with only FB on Firefox 4, other websites are working fine.
    I also tried opening FB on IE8 and Chrome. Their the site is opening normal. Have no issues with their browsers. I spotted it to be a problem with Firefox 4 and also the IDM (Internet Download Manager) doesn't work on the FF4 where it used to work on the earlier version of FF.
    Do something about the IDM integration with FF4 to download FLV,MP4 videos from YouTube and other websites.
    There is no "Go back to multiple pages" button in a FF4 tab. It only allows us to go back to the previous page. If I have open 10 pages in a single tab then I have to click the back button 10 TIMES to open the last (10th page) but in the previous FF3 there is a facility to view all the pages in a drop down which the current version of FF4 doesn't have :-( I am using Windows XP 2 Professional 32-bit and owner of the computer.
    Please fix the issues asap else I have to move back to the earlier version or have to shift to some other browser :

    Screen resolution changes after opening PDF in Preview and is enlarged.

    Do a backup.
    Quit Preview.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Remove the following. You may not find them all.

  • Screen resolution changes every time I open I-Tunes

    The screen resolution changes when I open I-Tunes. I have to go into control panel every-time to adjust the resolution to make the print and screen layout small enough so its entirety is captured which then allows me to use I-Tunes. Otherwise the graphics are too large to be captured on the screen making the program unusable.

  • Spontaneous screen resolution change

    I am running OS X Maverick since a few days.
    If I don't use my system, the screen "goes to sleep" after 10 min. (like I always had).
    Since the OS X upgrade I have the problem that my screen resolution changes to 800 * 600 after when I "rewake" the screen (by pressing a key).
    When I look in the system preferences, the screen resolution is set to "best for my screen"
    I have to change it manually to the original setting (1280 * 960)
    Error in the screendriver????

This section is for home user Touchsmarts. This is where you need to post http://h30499.www3.hp.com/ You will receive a much accurate respounce I also think they have live chat assistance as well during business hours on line as well. Your software is also different then ours is so it would not do you any good for me to give you direction on how to adjust your screen resolution. Because your computer even though they look a like on the outside they are not alike inside. Thank you frrw.

  • Screen resolution changes on restart

    I have my screen resolution set to 1680*1050 on my 2014 rMBP. When I reboot my the machine, it switches back to 1440*900, or even lower. On 10.10.1 the resolution would return to normal past the login screen. Not with 10.10.2: I have to manually turn the screen resolution to 1680*1050 after a reboot. I do not use any external displays. Does anyone else experience the same problem?

    Greetings cubic_p,
    If you are having an issue with your MacBook Pro not staying at a set video resolution after restarting, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Screen Resolution change

    Is there any OSX key combo I can use to change the screen resolution?
    I changed the resolution up to try it - my monitor couldn't handle it. Waited for it to ask me to confirm, and then flip back, but it didn't. Restarted my computer, but it still seems to be kicking out the signal at the too-high resolution, which won't display.
    I can't see the screen sufficiently clearly to navigate into System Preferences. Can anyone assist?

    Hmm, that should have worked since that's the file which holds both your screen resolution and profile information. You may have accidentally chosen a refresh rate that your monitor can't handle.
    Start up once again in Safe Mode. Go into the System Preferences and click the Displays icon. Click the "Detect Displays" button. Select any resolution you know will work. Make sure it's not the same as the current choice to force OS X to write the information back to disk.
    Close the System Preferences and restart normally.

  • Reset dimention object automatically when screen resolution changes

    hi frns,
    here i struggle with a prb.i set Jscroollpan prefferdsize() by using dimension obj, b'se to resize the components independent of screen resolution .
    jsp2.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( (int)(screenSize1.width/2.5), screenSize.height/2));
    my gui works properly even i change the screen resloution.but i have to restart my application to reflect new Dimensions.in my view the Dimension object resets to the new values only when i reexecute(it doesnot mean recompile..just rerun)the program. Is there any actionlistener or something else to catch that action(i.e when changing the screen resolution).there is addPropertyChangeListener in toolkit but i need code in detail. ...reply urgent

    1.) if its that urgent what about paying sun for support?
    2.) don't cross-post or double post.
    3.) No idea what your post is about, but back to your headline-question:
    no event, you need to poll in a seperate thread.

  • Screen resolution changed

    When I woke my Macbook Pro up, the screen resolution had changed to 800x600. I restarted it and it remained the larger resolution. I had t manually reset it. Why would this happen?

    PRAM reset (and SMC reset) can resolve some issues. Personally, I've never needed to do either.
    Was the resolution actually set to 800x600 in the Displays preference pane? It might be that an application altered the resolution (some do) and failed to reset it at quit (some freeware games do this). If Displays is set correctly and the resolution still looks wrong, that is most likely due to activation of the Zoom feature (System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing tab).

  • After using Image Capture and watching a video, the screen resolution changes

    Hello,
    Normally the colors of my screen are clear; The top ruler of each window is grey.
    But after scanning a color document, the color is pale. As if someone changed the screen resolution.
    Is this a common problem?
    My former Macbook Pro died because of a problem with the video system, a default acknowledged by Apple that they didnt want to repair under warranty anymore.
    Does this ring a bell?
    Today, the colors quickly became normal again, but I'd like to make sure it ' s not going to become a serious problem.
    Maybe this sounds kind of vague, well if anyone has something constructive to say about this, please do.
    thanks

    When you decided to not copy the files into the iPhoto Library Folder you took responsibility for File Management. iPhoto does not touch your file structure. Therefore, when you delete a photo from iPhoto you have to delete it from your file structure by hand.
    This is not the case if you let iPhoto do the File Management.
    There is no way to get iPhoto to find the pics you have deleted from it but which remain in your file structure. In the future, you could Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. You can then delete it from there, and after delete it from iPhoto.
    BTW, many people hold on to their own file structure because they feel that they will be unable to find a pic in the Finder, should they need it for uploading or emailing. There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, this produces a copy.
    3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Screen resolution changed upon awake; old resolution no longer available

    My new MSI Z97 i7 mobo based Windows TP woke from sleep this morning, with the resolution changed to 1024x768.
    When I went to change it back to 1920x1200, that resolution is not available; only 1920x1024, and the screen looks odd. Unless advised otherwise, I will try to re-install the display drivers that came w/ the mobo, to get the display correct again. Otherwise,
    really liking Win10

    Hello Giggirock,
    Firstly, i would take the display and conect it to another machine. See if you can achieve this resolution with another computer. If the same problem occurs, i would say its the controller board on the LCD. if the resolution was there(on the other computer) then u may have a problem with the video card in your computer.
    try this out, and let me know how you go
    Cheers
