how the fuck does that even happen

2017-11-25 17:48:08 UTC  

is ok

2017-11-25 17:48:10 UTC  

you only need terminal

2017-11-25 17:48:27 UTC  

but, there's one funcitonality I'm waiting for Linux to implement correctly

2017-11-25 17:48:35 UTC  

supporting multiple monitors with hotplugging

2017-11-25 17:48:55 UTC  

@spaqin you're joking

2017-11-25 17:49:05 UTC  

you cannot swap monitor cables while it's running?

2017-11-25 17:49:10 UTC  

sometimes it works

2017-11-25 17:49:14 UTC  

sometimes the pc deadlocks

2017-11-25 17:49:16 UTC  

oh wow

2017-11-25 17:49:21 UTC  

absolutely not thank you

2017-11-25 17:49:28 UTC  

using triple monitor

2017-11-25 17:49:34 UTC  

maybe once per two weeks in our environment at work

2017-11-25 17:49:35 UTC  

and sometimes I'll switch input to a ps4

2017-11-25 17:49:43 UTC  

i use triple monitor and i have never had issue with hotplugging

2017-11-25 17:49:43 UTC  

gotta have that switching ability

2017-11-25 17:49:50 UTC  

i use des though

2017-11-25 17:49:53 UTC  

twice a week we had a call where we took our laptops with yourselves

2017-11-25 17:49:59 UTC  

so 1/4 times it doesn't work

2017-11-25 17:51:13 UTC  

I will use linux for single instance tasks on low powered machines

2017-11-25 17:51:14 UTC  

Sure

2017-11-25 17:51:18 UTC  

But for my main?

2017-11-25 17:51:18 UTC  

if u use wms ofc its not gonna work since you have to configure xrandr again

2017-11-25 17:51:21 UTC  

Absolutely not

2017-11-25 17:51:34 UTC  

how about you use something like kde or gnome in high powered machines then

2017-11-25 17:51:41 UTC  

what's wms what's xrandr

2017-11-25 17:51:51 UTC  

i used cinnamon

2017-11-25 17:51:55 UTC  

xrandr is thing you use to configure monitors in like i3

2017-11-25 17:51:58 UTC  

my coworkers used unity and also had problems

2017-11-25 17:52:09 UTC  

I just want this shit to work without all the extra guff

2017-11-25 17:52:09 UTC  

(ooboodooboontoo)

2017-11-25 17:52:42 UTC  

All install tutorials I see, windows is a few steps, mac is usually a single step, linux is a page or two of dependency installs

2017-11-25 17:52:53 UTC  

no

2017-11-25 17:52:59 UTC  

it does it automatically

2017-11-25 17:53:06 UTC  

unless you've fallen for the /g/entoo meme

2017-11-25 17:53:10 UTC  

@spaqin Yeah, for a .deb package

2017-11-25 17:53:13 UTC  

@Obolon Prime stop lying you have never used linux

2017-11-25 17:53:18 UTC  

>using packages in last year + 1

2017-11-25 17:53:33 UTC

2017-11-25 17:53:36 UTC

2017-11-25 17:53:44 UTC
