From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

BSPWM, laptop has 1920x1080 resolution, external screen has 1680x1050. xrandr --output DP-1 1680x1050 cuts image, if I change resolution to 1920x1080, I get "full" image, but quality is just bad. I have another machine with XFCE, it's display utility does the trick and I wonder can I achieve smth similar on BSPWM with some simple console command?

Sir, you are magician, addition to script did the trick!

Will definitely play with autorandr, because if I understood you correctly, it can automatically reload bspwm listening to certain events.

Right now I'm trying master (or understand, at least) QEMU, can you recommend me some combination with sane defaults (for ex mint + installer for herb) I can play on vm?

Thank you!

Defaults for herbstluftwm? Sure, but what'd be helpful if to translate a bspwm config. Are you using sxhkd?

I can't help with VM stuff; I'm not experienced with them.

Post your bspwm and sxhkd configs.

Yes.

It's easy way to learn things without fear to break something, can herbstluftwm use sxhkd?

Easily but why?
