Как наблюдать за изменениями в подключенных мониторах через Xlib?

Исходный код Ксев:

• http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xev/tree/

Для второй части я выдаю конфигурацию напрямую в nvidia-settings.

Я собрал первую часть из частей, которые мне удалось найти, чтобы моя система HTPC, подключенная к телевизору, который ужасно пересканирован, могла сбрасывать среду экрана при включении телевизора.

Мне было бы интересно увидеть чистый порт C моих усилий...
