+## Installation/removal
+For Debian-based distributives (including Ubuntu) it is recommended to call `make deb` to obtain a package that can be installed and removed with `dpkg`.
+
+On other distributives you can install autorandr by calling `make install` and remove it by calling `make uninstall`.
+
+If you can contribute packaging script for other distributives, we will appreciate it.
## How to use
`--default <profile>`.
Another script called `postswitch` can be placed in the directory
-`~/.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.
+`~/.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 `$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`. In addition to
the script names themselves, any executables in subdirectories named
autorandr's state is exposed as environment variables prefixed with `AUTORANDR_`.
The most useful one is `$AUTORANDR_CURRENT_PROFILE`.
-To install autorandr call `make install`.
+## Apply configuration on login
+With recent versions of autorandr you typically do not need to add autorandr to `~/.xprofile`, since an autostart configuration file will be installed at `/etc/xdg/autostart/autorandr.desktop` by the makefile. It will select an appropriate profile automatically.
+
+If you need to customize this behaviour, you can always disable or modify it by placing an alternative desktop file with the same name in `~/.config/autostart` or by using a GUI configuration tool for autostart like `gnome-session-properties`.
