Hi,

I've xfce 4.2 running on a XTerminal. And when I try to start for example
xfce-mcs-manager, I get:

Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display "kartoffel:1.0".
The program 'xfce-mcs-manager' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'XF86VidModeClientNotLocal'.
  (Details: serial 120 error_code 135 request_code 134 minor_code 14)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)

That also happens with xfce4-setup-show and other programs.

How to reproduce? Just start a "X -ac -query host2 :1" on host1, and a
configured xdm on host2.... and try to start for example the setup.

Removing the library makes the programs working again.

Would it be useful to have a 'Default' resolution option in the display plugin
that simply does nothing? It would help with people using a virtual screensize
as well.

Ehm, 

What to do with this bugreport? I certainly can't reproduce it...
