I am on Void Linux, I am using Mate+lxdm. In Mate, I have set my Dell monitor to be the primary display and the laptop's screen to be not.
In Mate, this setup works as expected..but when I restart my computer, lxdm does not follow the settings in Mate.
the laptop shows the correct screen with all the menus and bars but the Dell is kinda zoomed in and i cannot see the bars..Is there a way to fix this ?
EDIT: I used arandr to get my xrandr line and then tried https://unix.stackexchange.com/question ... nal-screen.. but it still doesn't work. Should i sleep for like 2 seconds before the xrandr line ? Where else Can i put the xrandr line ?
LXDM does not show up properly on the primary display.

Re: LXDM does not show up properly on the primary display.
should I try the following ?
should i replace Mode "1920x1080" with Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1080" ?
Code: Select all
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "HDMI"
Mode "1920x1080"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Option "Monitor-HDMI2" "DVI"
Driver "intel"
