I could use a little data from the community.

For those of you with multiple monitors, could you post the output of

Code: Select all

xrandr --listactivemonitors

Code: Select all

xrandr --listmonitors

Code: Select all

xrandr --listproviders

Thanks!

This

Code: Select all

D="xrandr --"; for L in listactivemonitors listmonitors listproviders; do DO="$D$L"; echo -e "\n$DO"; $DO; done

gives this output:
