+## Installation/removal
+For Debian-based distributives (including Ubuntu) it is recommended to call `make deb` to obtain package that can be afterwards installed and removed with `dpkg`.
+
+On other distributives you can install autorandr by calling `make install` and remove by calling `make uninstall`.
+
+If you can contribute packaging script for other distributives, we will appreciate it.

 `--default <profile>`.
 
 Another script called `postswitch` can be placed in the directory
-`~/.autorandr` as well as in all profile directories: The scripts are executed
-after a mode switch has taken place and can notify window managers or other

+`~/.config/autorandr` (or `~/.autorandr` if you have an old installation) as
+well as in all profile directories: The scripts are executed after a mode
+switch has taken place and can notify window managers or other applications
+about it. The same holds for `preswitch`, which is executed before the switch
+takes place, and `postsave`, which is executed after a profile was
+stored/altered.
+
+All scripts can also be placed in any of the `$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`. In addition to
+the script names themselves, any executables in subdirectories named
+`script_name.d` (e.g. `postswitch.d`) are executed as well. In scripts, some of
+autorandr's state is exposed as environment variables prefixed with `AUTORANDR_`.
+The most useful one is `$AUTORANDR_CURRENT_PROFILE`.
+
+## Apply configuration on login
+With recent version you typically do not need to add autorandr to `~/.xprofile`, since autostart config file will be added at `/etc/xdg/autostart/autorandr.desktop`. It will select appropriate profile automatically.
+
+However, if you need to customize this, you can always disable or modify it by placing alternative desktop file in `~/.config/autostart` or using GUI like `gnome-session-properties`.
