Hi All,
I have a couple of machines that are kconnected to KVM switches so they can share their input devices & monitors with other machines.
This leads to a couple of issues.
- If the KVM is not switched to that machine at boot time, X defaults to a standard lower resolution than the monitor is capable of.
- If the machine screen saves, and then turns the monitor off when not selected, then it will not turn back on again even if I switch back to that machine.
2 can be partially mitigated by turning off power management in the screensaver settings but this has to be done for every user, is there a more global way of doing this.
Both machines are using the Nvidia driver on a GT710 card.
Is there a way of probing for the monitor’s settings once and recording those so the machine doesn’t have to keep probing for them?
Cheers.
Phill.
