Shiro external monitor #29

Closed leoqiao18 closed 2 years ago

leoqiao18 commented 2 years ago

What would you like to know?

For the shiro host, you mention in the README about external monitor setup. Do you manually run the xrandr command every time you connect with/disconnect from the external monitor, or do you automate it somehow?

Your configuration is great btw!

Sorry for the late response! Yes, I run the command manually, but it happens so rarely (maybe 2-3 times a year?) that I forget the exact command, so I keep it in the README (and since it's an org file, I can execute the block directly in Emacs).

I suppose I could automate it with udev (something like this), but like I said, I don't need it often enough to warrant the effort.

Hope that answers your question!
