[09:23] <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
[10:02] <alkisg> Mikaela: the panel and apps go to the "primary monitor"
[10:03] <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
[10:04] <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?
[10:05] <alkisg> (you can see the "primary" monitor if you run `xrandr`, it says "primary" there)
[10:14] <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
[10:15] <Mikaela> _b thanks :)
[11:55] <andrew_> anyone on?
[11:55] <andrew_> hello
[11:56] <andrew_> hello!
[12:44] <Mikaela> alkisg, http://termbin.com/k5x7 (xrandr)
[12:44] <Mikaela> I think it's also agreeing tha thte laptop/right screen is primary as TV/left is connected with HDMI
[12:50] <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
[13:27] <tytan> ok, I found that setting.
[13:34] <alkisg> Mikaela: run mate-tweak, and see if it happens with all window managers or not
[13:36] <alkisg> i.e. marco, compton etc
[17:51] <lafleurdubien> Hi everyone. I'm a single ubuntu guy and I'm seeking an ubuntu mate.

[18:19] <humm8> Is there any hidpi (5 or 8K under 32 or 34 inch) support todays?
[18:25] <humm8> Hey lafleurdubien, hope you enjoy something.
[18:25] <lafleurdubien> I enjoy long walks on the beach
[18:26] <lafleurdubien> is that good enough?
[18:28] <humm8> off course it is
[22:03] <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?
