Ubuntu laptop screen + external hdmi screen
TheBoss
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron n7110 laptop. When I try to connect to my external monitor with HDMI, things just fall apart.
Both monitors are Dell products with max resolution of 1600x900.
All windows get stretched out and mouse clicks are offset to right:
How can I correct the output of my displays?
TheBoss
Not sure what exactly fixed this but if anyone stumbles around for this, here are the things I did:
Reinstalled nvidia drivers, downloaded latest ones
Changed all from "auto" to some other value in Nvidia X server settings
- Downloaded CompizConfig(didnt do anything here)
- Spammed fn + f1 keys
- When not in mirror mode spammed Start + P key
