i have those problems still, sometimes after waking up, so i play the game have i tried this usb-c port or not. it usualy works after one two times. thank god i have 4 of them. i have a 2 external monitors and usually close the macbook. but hey at least it works. on my linux laptop it allways forgets the layout that i had and resorts to puting the external monitor right, and dont ger me started on X and fractional scalling.

You can use xrandr to load your specific layout at startup. If you don't wanna be bothered with crafting an xrandr command, you can use arandr to generate the script for you. Scaling is a mess though, totally agree with that.

  the problem for me is having mixed dpi monitors and fractionql scaling. for laptop monitor 150% to work it scales everything 2x, that also means that my external 27" 2560 which should be 1x is rendered to 5120 and that is causing stuttering and lag, at least i think it is, tried different drivers and so on. if i set the external monitor to 125 scaling then the rendered resolution is 4k and that works better, ni shuttering and lag. i dont know why it does need to run the external monitor to 2x if i want 1x. and i lost way to much time playing with the setup. ubuntu 1904, if you have any new ideas im willing to try it.

    Becasue X11 doesn't support mixed dpi monitors, so you are using a hack where it pretends to have the same dpi and downsample where necessary. For proper mixed dpi under Linux, you must use Wayland. But then, under Wayland, the fractional scaling is still not done (the wayland apps will work fine at given fractional scale, but x11 app will be @1 upsampled, i.e. blurry. That includes the browsers).

YMMV, but since switching to Wayland I've found issues like that to be a lot less common. Not gone completely, but rare enough that I never remember the last time when it finally occurs again. ;)

  sure but with hidpi display most of my apps are blurry, of browsers firefox nightly has it but chrome does not, intelij, vscode and so on.

    Only with the experimental fractional scaling enabled. If you disable it, your X11 apps will be sharp too. (No, I don't know why it still isn't fixed yet.)

      the laptop has a 13 3:2 display with 2160x1440 i cannot run it at 200, 150 is perfect, i need fractional scaling

    That's odd. I run a 4K display at 150% and DataGrip (same codebase as IntelliJ) and VSCode look fine.

      are you sure that the fonts aren't blurry ? https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-218458 https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-218458 https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/72759 https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/72759
