Mikaela | Hi, am I missing some simple trick to make all apps launch on my right display by default instead of the left one? The left would be a TV screen and most of apps look bad on it and I have to move everything by hand to the riht one. This question seemed a little ungoogleable | 09:23 |
---|---|---|
alkisg | Mikaela: the panel and apps go to the "primary monitor" | 10:02 |
alkisg | You can declare which monitor is the "primary" from the control panel display settings | 10:03 |
Mikaela | alkisg, but when I open something from the panel or desktop launcher, it opens on the left monitor even if it's not primary | 10:03 |
alkisg | Mikaela: is your panel to the right monitor, and the right monitor is the primary one, and your mouse is to the right monitor? | 10:04 |
alkisg | (you can see the "primary" monitor if you run `xrandr`, it says "primary" there) | 10:05 |
Mikaela | alkisg: yes to all | 10:14 |
Mikaela | I just had to leave, so I am not on my laptop for a few hours | 10:14 |
alkisg | Mikaela: can you paste the output of this? xrandr | nc termbin.com 9999 | 10:14 |
alkisg | Ah ok, let's continue when you're there again | 10:14 |
Mikaela | _b thanks :) | 10:15 |

Mikaela | I think it's also agreeing tha thte laptop/right screen is primary as TV/left is connected with HDMI | 12:44 |
tytan | hello everyone, I upgraded from Ubuntu Mate 14.04 to 18.04 and I don't have a drop down terminal on F12 anymore. Have I done something wrong? This is a minimal installation. | 12:50 |
tytan | *fresh installation on a new computer | 12:50 |
tytan | ok, I found that setting. | 13:27 |
alkisg | Mikaela: run mate-tweak, and see if it happens with all window managers or not | 13:34 |
alkisg | i.e. marco, compton etc | 13:36 |

BlueProtoman | I'm trying to use the nvidia drivers on Ubuntu MATE 18.04, with a nVidia GeForce GTX 860M via Optimus. Although `prime-select query` outputs `nvidia`, nvidia-smi fails with "NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running." I can't use CUDA as a result, and my graphics are being drawn with my Intel chip. How can I | 22:03 |
BlueProtoman | fix this? | 22:03 |
