2017-08-31 16:27:41 Danny Howard description In xubuntu-desktop, I have checked "Configure new displays when connected" When I connect a new display, I am given options from Use 1st screen, mirror displays, extend desktop, or use the 2nd screen. I would like to Mirror Displays, but that option is ghosted in the connection dialog. I can then hit "Advanced" and check "Use this display" on each display and then check "Mirror displays" and then the displays mirror but the Resolution gets set to 1920x1200. I then have to manually set each "mirrored" display individually to 3840x2160.
