Hi,
I'm trying to set up redshift with the randr backend, but this fails with the message "Failed to start adjustment method randr.".

Your kernel is too old, and probably your libdrm and mesa too if you run a stable system.
What you are seeing is either vesa or fbdev fallback driver which don't support xrandr 1.2. |
