hi there.
i'm trying to be able to switch between my laptop monitor and the display port
where sometimes a second monitor is attached and sometimes a beamer.
i do this with twinview at the moment and it works fine, but i have to go into
the settings every time i change the setup which is annoying.
i looked for a solution and found a tool called "disper" which allows to do this
switching from command line.

i tried to emerge disper 3.0 and ran into following error :
Code:
  File "src/disper.py", line 197
    print self.export_config()
             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

after that he finishes compiling and installing without any more errors.
when i try to run disper -L for listing screens i get :
Code:

# >>  disper -L
  File "/usr/bin/disper", line 34
    except Exception,e:
                    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


same errors occur when compiling and installing by hand from the downloaded tarball.
any ideas how i can emerge disper correctly ?
pls tell me if you need any more information about my system.
thx in advance !
