Re: [PLUG] External displays / PLUGNorth 12-Oct, 2021


iirc, Vbox will do this. Also has a mode that will hide Vbox and make what it's running look native.

Context: trying to get an external VGA display to do virtual desktops/workspaces,
rather than just mirroring the main/root laptop display.

Enough hints gathered for me to search the online Linux fora.

I learned something new at the tail end tonight -- connecting an external display
also affects where audio gets sent, so I lost sound.

Much for this audio/video newbie to study.

Now that LOLz have been had, we return you to your regular scheduled discussions.
