I connected TV to my computer, and trying to set dual display.
Whatever resolution I choose for my second display (TV) I get message like this:
The selected configuration for displays could not be applied
required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(2704, 1050), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1680, 1680)
How can I fix this?
Also, while I was experimenting system went to deadlock, I restarted and after boot monitor just turns off once system is up. I boot in recovery mode and after several retries fixed it somehow, I don't know how, probably by changing display config from display manager. now I found xorg.conf.new
file in my home dir:
