I am just beginning my journey with Linux and must admit that some really simple looking things started to get very serious and complicated
My primary laptop screen runs: 1366x768@60.00hz, secondary (TV) 1920x1080@60.00hz.
I have following question: is there a possibility to run them with mirror display with laptop resolution stretched to TV size? It used to work just fine this way under windows as duplicate display option. I don't need multiple desktops, I just need to see the exact thing on both monitors.
