It created an issue with display being too small on one screen or too big on other screens.īy switching to Wayland in Ubuntu 20.10, I managed to make the three screens work but only at Full HD level. I had the screens with different resolutions. Last month, I got a new Dell XPS that comes with an Ultra HD display (3840x2400p) and that’s where the trouble started. These LG monitors with IPS panel have been part of my setup for the last two years or so. I use two Full HD (1920x1080p) monitors with my laptop to give me the advantage of three screens. Intrigued? Read on! Multi-monitor with HiDPI screens on Ubuntu I know it doesn’t have the awesome GNOME 40 yet but the thing that makes me happy is that I can use my multi-monitor setup quite happily now. Hopefully what I described makes sense, let me know if a video of the behavior I am seeing would help.I upgraded to Ubuntu 21.04 beta yesterday and I can say I am pretty happy with it. Like I said, the amount of free space I have across all monitors is constant, but the behavior seems to be random as to where the context menu is drawn. But it seems weird that it is so indeterminate. So the problem seems to be more random than what I originally thought.Īre you saying that Windows tells MM5 where to draw the context menu and that sometimes it tells you to draw it on a different monitor? If so this sounds like a Windows bug. However, I exited and closed MM5, and now now matter where I clicked, the context menu is being drawn on the correct monitor. The closer I got to the edge, it seemed the more likely the context menu would be drawn on a monitor to the left of where MM5 was running. Then I thought it had something to do with how close I was to the edge of the MM5 when I clicked. I see now that sometimes things work correctly on a monitor to the right of my main center monitor. I did some more investigation after your latest reply and I see that it is not that straight forward.
I thought originally the problem occurred if I was running MM5 on a monitor to the right of my center main monitor. Just to make sure I am describing the problem correctly, the problem is that when I right click, sometimes the context window is drawn on the monitor where MM5 is, other times it is on a separate monitor. Since this is the case, why is it only sometimes that the context window gets drawn on the wrong monitor? In my case, there is always a ton of extra space outside the main MM5 window. Maybe I am missing something, but I didn't understand your explanation.
