I've used dual monitors on my linux setup for years without issues. Is this a common problem?
- richardcrossley 5y agoI've been using dual screens on Linux since 2009 and for the last 2 years triple screens. My current PC is using and nVidia 1660 GPU to drive this. I'm running Ubuntu 20.04. It wasn't out-of-the-box easy to install, but running installer in safe-mode worked and regular boots are as normal. Even on laptops dual screens work provided the laptop supports it.
- jsymolon 5y agoThere is a problem if there is a mismatched DPI between screens. I've rarely seen it as i usually dock the machine with duplicate monitors.
- mijoharas 5y agoThis used to require some tweaking under gnome (different DPI), but is nice and smooth under wayland.
