--- generated by monitor-manager -- do not edit by hand
+-- Default monitor configuration.
+--
+-- This is a functional fallback only: a single catch-all rule that brings up
+-- every connected output at its preferred mode, auto-positioned with an
+-- automatic scale. It is enough to get a usable screen on any machine.
+--
+-- Per-machine layout (resolution, position, scale, rotation, mirroring) is
+-- managed by scripts/monitor-manager, which overwrites this file. Don't hand-
+-- edit it for a specific setup -- run the manager instead.
