Mainly, I was saying that you could use Gnoga if GTKAda doesn't provide the 
information you need.

These would require you to initialize a Gnoga application:

procedure Get_Screen_Size (Height : out Positive; Width : out Positive) is
    Window : Gnoga.Gui.Window.Window_Type;
begin -- Get_Screen_Size
    Gnoga.Application.Singleton.Initialize (Main_Window => Window);
    Height := Gnoga.Gui.Screen.Height (Window);
    Width  := Gnoga.Gui.Screen.Width  (Window);
end Get_Screen_Size;

Possibly you could use this from a GTKAda application.

On my system, these functions return a height of 1080 and a width of 1920.
