Small Suggestion

[willz06jw]

Thanks for building DSL 2024!

Here are a few more ideas and issues I have had.

1.  Polish spam-bots on the forum -- can you please zap these guys?  I get emails from every time one of these things post.

2.  It is pretty manual to change the screen timeout.  I wish this was part of the menu GUI system

3.  I have a laptop hooked to an external monitor, even after disabling the laptop monitor through Control Centre/Session/Set Screen Resolution (ARandR) the wallpaper image I selected is stretched in a strange way.  I wish there was a more robust wallpaper GUI to stretch and center the image I select from Control Center/Choose Wallpaper.

4.  When I reboot, the laptop goes back to the laptop screen.  I wish it remembered what to do when the laptop is connected to an external monitor.

Thanks for your work,
Will

Please tell us you're not running nvidia drivers...(only half joking). 

Sorry if you've already posted what you're running, but get us the results of each of these if you can:

Code:

inxi -G

Code:

xrandr --listmonitors

Code:

xrandr --listproviders

Code:

xrandr

Code:

sudo lshw -c video

And is this HDMI? Peek through your dmesg and see if there are more clues (like maybe firmware not loading for the approp driver or something).

Try searching upstream for screen timeout.

Thanks.
