Gvidm is a GTK application that enables users to swiftly and conveniently alter video resolutions within X.
Using the software tool is straightforward. It supports both XVidMode and XRandR extensions, allowing you to either zoom or change the screen size along with the resolution. It also enables you to specify a mode to switch to immediately or a list of modes to choose from for convenience.
The software tool requires GTK 1.2 or 2.x, as well as an X server that supports either XVidMode, XRandR extensions or both. The newest release offers new features, such as support for GTK 2.0. The default setting is to build the program for GTK 2.0 when it is present. However, the user can specify configure --with-gtk1 to force the program building with GTK 1.x.
Additionally, the latest version addresses the issues with the build, such as when xf86Parser.h is not present. Although in such cases, interlaced or doublescan modes may display incorrect refresh rates. Overall, GVidChanger-minimal (gvidm) is an excellent software tool for anyone looking to change video resolutions quickly and easily.
