Hi All,
I just installed the cinnamon DE on top of Ubuntu gnome 15.10 on my dell XPS 13.
Today I was teaching a class and connected my laptop as usual to the projector, however, it wouldnt detect my display. I had to log out, then back to gnome and it worked. That was a bit stressful... It always worked with gnome, why shouldnt it work with cinnamon???
I switched 100% to linux only few months ago, but things mostly worked out fine, except for these types of ups and down.
Any idea how I could trouble shoot this? I like the cinnamon desktop but cant install any other version of Ubuntu (or Mint actually) as I have a piece of software (Matlab) that I cant get easily installed on this laptop.
Thanks for any help. :p
