Don't set --fb when disabling outputs #219

I have one monitor that's bigger than my laptop's. When I undock, the --fb argument for the new configuration prevents the large monitor from shutting off in the disable_outputs pass. I think it's the same basic problem as #198.

I'm not usually a Python developer, so apologies if this is unpythonic. It works for me.

Thanks for the great tool!

Does the approach from the ticket work for you as well? I'm referring to the one where the --fb argument is always passed, just with the old size. It'd feel safer to me to pursue that approach if it works. (There's just so many edge cases with xrandr..)

This creates a reference to base_argv. The += below changes base_argv itself!

Oops! Yes. I'm out of practice in mutable collections.

Okay, I'll give the other approach a try when I clean up my base_argv bug.
