Here's some feedback: driconf doesn't deal very gracefully with being unable to find xdriinfo: sh: line 1: xdriinfo: command not found Traceback (most recent call last): File "./driconf", line 25, in ? driconf.main() File "./driconf.py", line 669, in main dpy = dri.DisplayInfo () File "./dri.py", line 289, in __init__ nScreens = int(XDriInfo ("nscreens", dpy)) File "./dri.py", line 55, in XDriInfo raise DRIError ("xdriinfo not found") dri.DRIError: xdriinfo not found As for the GUI, GTK2 would be much nicer. :) Seriously though, it took me a while to find out how to use it. It wasn't obvious that the checkboxen are only for selection of the entries to change. A way to see the default value for each option would be nice. And having to select a config file for saving it feels awkward, just save to the file which is the parent node of the selected app? While these are mostly cosmetic, the worse problem is that the attached ~/.drirc written by driconf doesn't work: libGL error: Warning in /home/michdaen/.drirc line 1, column 0: unknown element: dri. libGL error: Warning in /home/michdaen/.drirc line 2, column 4: <device> should be inside <driconf>. And the glxgears spin at full steam.
