All X11 servers I've used until now under OS X updated their display
info when I changed the external display on my laptop (Powerbook and
now MBP), without action on my part. XQuartz 2.6.0 no longer does
this, which is quite annoying.
My procedure for changing screens:
1- use FUS to go to the login screen
2- disconnect screen
3- reconnect a different screen
4- log in.
This has the big advantage that the OS X window manager doesn't
collect all my windows on the principal screen (laptop's own screen in
step 2, and then the external in step 3).
Is this a bug in XQuartz 2.6.0, or is this behaviour now governed by
some hidden setting? I'd hate having to restart the server each time I
change screens (twice on a workday), and will probably step back down
to 2.5.3 as long as there's no workaround...

PS: best belated wishes for 2011 despite the above ^^
