I changed the aspect ratio in a game from 16:9 to 4:3 by mistake, and then my primary monitor went black. I tried restarting my computer, still no output, changed the resolution in game, no output, switched video drivers, no output, unplugged and replugged, nada. The monitor displays the login screen when initially booting my computer, but after that, nothing. The monitor is still recognized as a device in the "display manager" app, but it does not show up in the orientation section of the app.
If any terminal outputs are required to help in diagnosing my problem, please let me know and i will be happy to supply them.
Monitor no longer has output after changing aspect ratio in game

As indicated in How to get help (the section in pink right above your topic title), supplying basic system information (directions are in the link and I have copied them below) should be provided with your post.Little man wrote: ⤴Thu Mar 28, 2024 9:10 pmIf any terminal outputs are required to help in diagnosing my problem, please let me know and i will be happy to supply them.
Please open the System Reports app and click the System Information tab on the left. Your computer's information should come up in the right pane. Then click the Copy button in the lower right and paste the results into a reply window here so we can see how Linux Mint views your hardware.
