Re: Magic mirror with 2 displays
System HP desktop with DP and HDMI outputs
OP: Ubuntu 22
I want to run MagicMirror in a system with 2 monitors, showing MagicMirror on monitor 2
I also want to turn off the second monitor when we are not near.
I can turn the second monitor off and on using xrandr
I can start MagicMirror on monitor two using the electronPosition option in the config file
The problem is that when I turn off the second monitor MagicMirror “moves” to the main monitor which I don’t want.
I read about using the display variable to direct the output to the second monitor but I have no idea how to setup the display:0 and display:1 variables to point to the two monitors and I don’t even know if this will keep MM from moving to monitor 1 when I turn off monitor 2
Has anyone done this and have a solution or any hints?
Thank you
Carlos
