14:24.11morsingWhat's the tool nowadays to set the display timings? xvidtune doesn't really seem to want  to do it.
14:24.59morsingI've added a monitor with a port replicator but the desktop doesn't match the screen area and is squashed
14:27.11Leedsxrandr would be the place to start, at least
14:29.54morsingI ran that and just got timing output. Is that the tool to change them as well or do I use vi? Amd I thought you had me on ignore...

14:32.36morsingdick_turpin!
14:45.16Leedsit can change things, but I'm not sure it'll go beyond what has been detected by the server talking to the 'display'
14:49.37morsingWhat detects it?
14:54.47*** part/#gllug dick_turpin (n=peter@static-87-243-206-72.adsl.hotchilli.net)
14:59.55morsingLeeds: How come it will set a resolution that's not the right aspect ratio?
15:00.23LeedsI guess it's a mis-detection... if you check the X startup log, you'll see the detection going on
15:03.20morsingLeeds: Oh! I think it's something to do with the screen being virtually matched side-by-side with the laptop screen hence the vertical resolution is set identically
15:03.44Leedsthat might make some sense, yes

15:04.46morsingI think that's it...
15:04.59morsingCan it be split in two screens?
15:28.57Leedsit'll depend on how new your X setup is, I thik
15:28.59Leedsthink
15:29.29morsingLatest Ubuntu, not sure about X
