melodie | hi, I have installed Xubuntu Jammy on my laptop, Dell 5580, and yesterday tried to use the dual screen feature. These were tests for a client who told me he can't keep his dual-screen settings from one session to the other. I found the same thing. When rebooting with the same external screen plugged in a nice window asked which setting I preferred. When booting again later with no external screen attached I could not get my panel to show up : it is as if | 10:36 |
melodie | it is stuck with the ghost screen. | 10:36 |
melodie | I tried changing the settings using the gui tools, no luck, I tried to find the "thing" in the configuration files under ~/.config/xfce/* no luck either, I tried moving them out of the way, it didn't work either. | 10:37 |
melodie | so a few questions : is it specifice to Xfce and working better with the official Gnome3 environment? | 10:38 |
melodie | and when I mean better, I mean can it work automatically, and revert to normal when there is no second screen plugged in? | 10:38 |
melodie | or is it a Jammy issue? And a Focal edition should have been preferred? | 10:39 |
melodie | Also I tried to create a profile with a name for the dual screen setup and save it : but the next time I was in the same windows, there was nothing showing in the list. I did it twice, and the profile is not available in the gui window anymore. | 10:41 |
melodie | last question : have I missed something? | 10:41 |
tomreyn | melodie: i have no proper answer, but some suggestions. (1) look for an existing bug report, if none, use the "ubuntu-bug" command to file one. (2) see if you have ~/.config/monitors.xml and how this might play a role in the constellations you discussed. (3) provide more details (also in the bug report): which graphics card and driver is being used? is this Xorg or Wayland? | 12:29 |
melodie | hi tomreyn I was on #ubuntu-fr and with the help of someone I might have found a proper turn around, but I still need to perform some testing | 12:30 |
KBar | tomreyn: can xubuntu/xfce even run on wayland? | 12:35 |
melodie | KBar, Wayland does not yet replace entirely Xorg, does it? | 12:43 |
KBar | it doesn't and it can't | 12:44 |
KBar | plenty still use X | 12:44 |
tomreyn | oh i really didn't know. i think i read about a year ago that there were first steps being made towards wayland compatibility | 12:48 |
tomreyn | or maybe this was just gtk4, which was described as a pre-depends, IIRC. | 12:49 |
tomreyn | https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap is probably what i read then | 12:52 |
melodie | have a good day! (or night) | 13:11 |
