This module implements two functions:
def error(message):
- This function displays the error message to the user in some appropriate fassion
+ This function displays the error message to the user in some appropriate fassion
def setup(internalResolutions, externalResolutions):
- Both arguments are lists of (width, height) tuples of resolutions. You can use dsl.res2user to obtain a user-readable representation of a resolution tuple.
- The user should be asked about his display setup preferences.
- The function returns None if the user cancelled, and an instance of dsl.ScreenSetup otherwise.
