linux display screens factory

I went to “System Setting -> Display and Monitors -> Display Configuration” and then I dragged the screens and I messed up my screen resolution and not able to revert it back.

The question is quite broad, and a lot more could be written on the subject than this answer covers. I have tried to provide a historical perspective on the evolution of Linux graphics. Graphics, windowing systems, and graphical user interfaces (GUIs) on Linux have gone through a lot of changes since the early 1990s, when the X Window System (X11) was ported to Linux.

The X Window System was designed to work on graphics systems that were the state of the art in the 1980s. A typical workstation had a single frame buffer connected to a simple CRT controller which displayed the contents of the frame buffer on a display monitor. Computing before the PC and workstation era was done via serial line ("dumb") terminals connected to central computers situated in computer machine rooms. This historical context influenced the design of X11: graphical applications could be run on remote computers with the user interacting with the program using terminals with graphics capabilities. The "terminal" could be a workstation or a dedicated X terminal.

To enable the user to handle the windows on screen, for example, move, resize, close, raise and lower a window, a particular application called the window manager is provided. The window manager can also display window decorations like borders, title bars, and global menus.

In the early 2000s, display hardware had come a long way from the simple black-and-white bitmapped displays that existed when development of X started in the 1980s. The X11 relative overhead of the inter-process communication (IPC) model had grown too big, even when using a local socket. The solution to this was to abandon the principle that the X server is the only part that talks directly to the hardware, and let the clients talk to the graphics card directly. The Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) was born.

The next innovation to enter the Linux graphics scene was the compositing window manager. Traditionally, each X client application was responsible for repainting its windows (partially, or the whole window) on demand. The X server sent the application an Expose event when a repaint was needed as the result of the window being mapped on the screen, or if it is no longer obscured by some other window. When an overlapping window is removed, the window beneath it is exposed. Failing to repaint this area lead to the old contents still being displayed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_artifact

A compositing window manager changes this. Applications render to their own off-screen buffers, each of which is kind of a separate screen with exclusive access by the application owning the buffer. It is the task of the compositing window manager to display these buffers in windows on a real screen, clipping any windows that are obscured by other windows or partially off-screen. The window manager displays a "composition" of the windows.

A compositing manager can typically also display animated effects, like scaling, warping, fading, rotating, blurring the windows. For example, moving a window can make it wobble, or virtual desktops can be displayed on the side of a rotating cube.

The X server traditionally also took care of setting the modes of the graphics adapter, like resolution and refresh rates. The mode setting has since been moved to a Linux kernel component called Kernel Mode Setting (KMS). This solved a lot of problems with switching between Linux"s virtual consoles.

The X server also had knowledge of the input devices and, for example, the type of mouse had to be specified in the X configuration. The X server has been relieved of this task with the introduction of the evdev subsystem of the Linux kernel, which provides a generic input event interface.

Wayland came about as a result of the realization that the X server process had little left to do, and by cutting out the middle-man (the X server), a much simpler desktop graphics system could be achieved. Backward compatibility is provided via Xwayland, a modified Xorg server that displays top level X windows using Wayland surfaces.

Strictly speaking, Wayland is just a protocol that defines how clients communicate with the display server. The Wayland protocol is quite unlike the X protocol: the Wayland protocol does not define messages to draw graphics or text, nor does it handle fonts.

In the Wayland architecture, the window manager and the display server are merged into one software component, the compositing window manager. Clients can request, via a software library using the Wayland protocol, a surface to draw on. A "surface is an object representing a rectangular area on the screen, defined by a location, size and pixel content".

Clients render into off-screen buffers, which are then attached to a surface, producing output on the screen. The client can use various APIs to do the rendering: OpenGL, OpenGL ES, etc. ("What is the drawing API? Whatever you want it to be") Double buffering is used: a client updates its image using a second buffer, and when that buffer contains a coherent image, it is switched to be displayed at the next display monitor vertical blanking interval. Wayland"s motto is: "Every frame is perfect", i.e. windows do not tear, flicker or flash.

Whenever I put my Lubuntu laptop to sleep when it"s exclusively displaying on my TV and wake it up after having unplugged it, I end up with a black screen because the wrong resolution is assigned. So same problem as you, I need to set the resolution from the TTY1 virtual terminal I can reach with Ctrl-alt-F1, but xrandr doesn"t seem to work. I scoured pages of Google search results before coming upon the solution, so I thought I"d share.

The key thing is that xrandr apparently only works on the currently focused display. So you have to chain a sleep command before your xrandr command to give you time to switch back to the X server with Ctlr-alt-F7 so the command is executed there. Otherwise you get an error like xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed.

I am using Ubuntu 15.10. I accidentally changed the size of the interface to maximum. Now my folders and windows are too large and don"t fully fit the screen so I cannot revert the effect. Is there any way to reset the display settings to default so this can revert to normal?

If you’re using a Linux-based operating system and your display settings are messed up, don’t worry – you can reset them easily. In most cases, all you need to do is open up the “Settings” or “Preferences” menu and look for an option to restore the defaults. If that doesn’t work, or if you’re using a terminal-based interface, there are a few commands you can use to reset your display settings.

If you’re a Linux user, you might be wondering how to reset your display settings. Maybe you’ve accidentally changed something and now your screen is unreadable, or maybe you just want to start fresh with a new configuration. Either way, it’s easy to reset your display settings in Linux.

It is easy to change the screen resolution in Linux. There are a few methods that can be used depending on what type of display you are using and what desktop environment you are running.

If you are using a physical display connected directly to your computer, then the easiest way to change the resolution is to use the Screen Resolution tool found in most Linux distributions.

This tool can be found in different places depending on which desktop environment you are running. In GNOME 3, for example, it is located under Settings > Devices > Displays. In KDE Plasma 5, it is located under System Settings > Display and Monitor > Display Configuration.

In either case, simply select the desired resolution from the list of options and click Apply. Your screen should now be displaying at the new resolution.

If you want to reset your display settings through terminal, there are a few different ways that you can do this. The first way is to simply type in the command “reset” into the terminal. This will reset your display settings back to the defaults.

Another way that you can reset your display settings is by using a graphical tool such as GNOME Tweak Tool or Ubuntu Tweak. These tools will allow you to change various settings without having to use the terminal.

From here, navigate to the Display section and then click on Change display settings. This will bring up a new window where you can adjust your screen resolution, refresh rate, and other display options. Once you’ve made your changes, simply click Apply to save them.

Once Radeon Settings is open, click on Display & Graphics in the sidebar menu and then select Reset Display Driver Settings from the list of options. This will reset all of your AMD graphic driver settings back to their defaults.

If you’re looking to reset all your monitor settings, there are a few things you’ll need to do. First, open up the Display Properties dialog box. To do this, right-click on the desktop and select Properties.

Most of us are familiar with the standard Windows display settings dialog, which allows us to change our screen resolution, adjust the size of icons and text, and so on. But did you know that Linux also has a command line tool for managing display settings?

This tool is called xrandr, and it offers a lot more flexibility than the standard GUI tools. In this article we’ll take a look at how to use xrandr to manage your display settings from the command line.

The –output option tells xrandr which display output you want to configure. This is usually your main monitor, but it could also be an external monitor or projector connected via HDMI or VGA. To get a list of all available outputs, use the –listproviders option:

The top part of the configuration window displays the detected monitors or displays along with their names. (You can click the monitors and drag them into the correct alignment for how you have them set up.)

There is a checkbox at the upper right-hand side corner of the bottom half of the configuration window that toggles the screens between Extend and Mirrored. (Extend is the default. Be aware of setting the screens to Mirror as this may restrict the possible resolutions in use.)

The second option down the middle is Rotation: this also has a drop-down menu of choices. (Again it matches whichever screen you have clicked.) The rotation decides which edge of the screen the display regards as being the bottom. This is useful if you have one or more of your displays that are mounted on their side. Where they give a Portrait, rather than a Landscape view.

The third option down the middle is Launcher Placement: this has a drop-down menu which gives a choice between the launcher being visible on only on one of the displays or on all displays. (The default setting is All Displays. The Launcher is the vertical taskbar in Ubuntu.)

There is a button at the lower left-hand side corner of the configuration window that is named Detect Displays. It attempts to detect any screens plugged to your system and assign an ID on each screen so you can see if your configuration is working.

Use this window and its various options to configure the multiple screens the way you want them. How you set your screens up is purely down to your personal preferences and needs.

Open the snychwall app and go to Preferences > Display parameters. Go to Multi-MonitorDisplay and select Extend image on the page below. Check the box next to share image between monitors to put the wallpaper across all your screens.

As in Windows, you can use the software that installs with the proprietary driver to configure your video devices and to configure your multiple displays. Each manufacturer will have more information about their support site about how to use their specific software.

The icm files don"t store any calibration data (at least for my surface laptop 3). They are just generic tone curves (I used displaycal profile viewer to inspect them). The monitor driver in Windows (surface calibrated panel, also called surfaceoempanel in the driver package) points to "calibration computation" and other stuff like a dll so I"m at a loss how exactly the calibration works. The profiles in Windows are seemingly just telling the driver what profile it should apply (I"m assuming here). I was curious if anyone else knew more about it. Seems like nobody knows how exactly it works, but my guess is it interfaces with graphics driver LUT directly. Manual calibration is tricky as well because the backlight is PFS (wide-gamut) but sRGB gamut is only addressable and I don"t have a spectrometer (only a colorimeter) to measure SPD for accurate color calibration. Thank you for the response though, gamma calibration alone is sufficient for my needs on linux.

At home, on Linux I solved this problem by switching to StumpWM, a tiling window manager. That works although it brings it’s own problems with it. At work I am forced to use Windows so no Stump for me there. For a while I did have a program that divided a single monitor into virtual screens. That was cool but buggy and occasionaly caused crashes.

Back to something closer to the device in the article…. I would love a phone that has both an eInk and a regular display. Then I could use my phone for reading and flashcards in bright sunlight but still have the main display for it’s better resolution, color and framerate when I am inside. Yes, I know something like that was available for a while. I’m not made of money, I don’t buy one of every phone generation (what is that, 6 months?). A new phone just wasn’t an option at the time those were available.
