As the title suggests, I am having problems using a second screen with my MSI laptop. I'm new to Unix/Linux,
I have a dual boot of Windows 10 and Linux Mint. Everything works fine in Windows, but I already tried all solutions I could find online to make the second monitor work in Linux Mint with no success.
