When I installed Ubuntu server on my server (HP Proliant DL380 G4) I found that when I booted it after install I had to press
ctrl + alt + f1-6 to get to the terminal where something would show up. However when I got to the CLI I logged in and I installed LightDM and xfce4, when I did this and I pressed f8 I got stuck out of the terminal and my tv blacked out showing only a messag ...

I have two identical HP monitors that both can handle 1920x1080 resolution connected to a basic HP SlimDesktop model 290-p0043w with a basic Intel® UHD Graphics 610 GPU. However, the video output is one HDMI and one VGA port. I had Ubuntu 18.04 installed on the same computer before and after some tweaking I got the VGA port to work on 1920x1080 stable and reliable. Now I installed Ubuntu 21.04 on the s ...

I want to have a setup with 3 monitors.

I have a DELL precision T1650 with 32 GB RAM and + 1TB SSD.

For display, I have 2 Phillips (1080P: 1920x1080) and one BenQ monitors(1080P: 1920x1080). The 2 Phillips are connected with 2 Display-port -> HDMI (display on computer and HDMI on screen). The BenQ is connected with vga -> vga.

Older 32-bit laptop running 18.04.

When I plug in an external VGA monitor it slows down abysmally, as in 20+seconds between keystrokes. If I unplug the monitor it works fine again.

External shows the background fine and cursor is normal speed. Everything else is dead slow. Tried several monitors same result.

How can I fix this?

I am trying to play some sightly old games with WINE and I run into the following problem. The games go into full screen mode at 640x480. My monitor has two possible refresh rates for this resolution, 60Hz and 75Hz. The problem is that 75Hz is always selected as the preferred mode but the games are designed to run at 60Hz vsynced, so they either run faster than they should or run jerky (depending on the ...

I have one monitor with 1366x768 resolution and two CPUs(one Windows System and one Ubuntu System). I am using VGA splitter to render two CPUs. But I am facing few problems :

• Every time I switch display from splitter , my resolution resets to 1024 x 768. Then manually I have to set it to 1366 x 768 using xrandr.

I currently have my system setup with Ubuntu 20.04. I have one HDMI port, where I am able to successfully add an additional monitor. I would like to add two more additional monitors (three total). Does any one have a hardware recommendation for either a HDMI to USB adapter or a VGA to USB adapter that works well with Ubuntu?

Thanks

I use a HP laptop with an old VGA monitor connected via HDMI-VGA dongle. Currently on 21.04 fresh install.

Under Settings > Display I can only see option for Built-in display. There is no option to even detect for any additional displays.

If I boot using the HDMI output from the motherboard, the HDMI output will work and the others won't work. If I boot using the VGA output, the motherboard will only enable the VGA output and the other display outputs won't work.

My hardware is:

• CPU: i5-11400
