I've tried numerous times to get away from Ubuntu but nothing else seems to support HiDPI displays well enough. I hoping this changes soonish.

- Tomte 9y agoUnfortunately, Ubuntu doesn't support a HiDPI and a non-HiDPI display side-by-side. You can choose which one looks fine, but one will be close to unusable (either much too large UI elements or much too small ones). After several days of Ubuntu (and Fedora), I just gave up and installed Windows which works perfectly.
- thenomad 9y agoHow did you get this working in Windows? I'm struggling with just this problem in Win10 at the moment.
- Tomte 9y agoReally? It worked out of the box for me. Also Windows 10. Both displays' native resolutions were automatically recognized. I don't remember if I had to manually select separate scaling factors or if Windows did it by itself, but I was relieved to have a working desktop so quickly.
- RUG3Y 9y agoI'm either using my 27" monitor or my laptop monitor. I don't use two monitors, so for me, Ubuntu is working. Regardless of resolution or display, Windows will not work for me, I've got to have Linux/shell/ sane Python environment etc.
