Hello, I had continuous BSOD on my fairly recent win11 install and decided that it was finally time to go full linux after I used linux mint on my laptop for last 2 days. From the first boot my second screen (with lower resolution of 1680x1050) didn't give display, I tried changing primary monitor, changing display from extend to mirror but the second monitor just wont give display. I lurked on forums to find a similar problem but I didn't see something which would exactly match my problem and I came across the command -xrandr and it finally clicked that its probably something to do with the resolution. So, I lowered the resolution on my second monitor and it works. How do I make my secondary monitor to give display at its peak resolution of 1680x1050 which was previously working in windows? I also like the taskbar (Panel) on my secondary monitor. Does linux allow taskbar to be shared on both screens?
