Next, In the <gui>Hardware</gui> section select <gui>Monitors</gui>. +</item> +<item>Click the rectangle that says your monitors name, such as XYZ Brand 23. To enable it, +you will want to change the setting at the top of the dialog from <gui>Off</gui> to <gui>On</gui>; +then select the appropriate resolution that your monitor supports, refresh +rate, and rotation (if necessary). If you're unsure which settings to use then refer to your +monitor's manual for configuring the appropriate settings.</item> + +<item>To test out the new configuration hit the <gui>Apply</gui> key, if it looks right +hit <gui>Close</gui>. If the monitor is not in the right location virtually in contrast to its +actual physical location then you can drag the monitors' rectangle around to the appropriate +location.</item></steps> + +At default, different images are displayed on each monitor, if you wish to enable the +same image across both monitors then tick the box titled <gui>Same image in all monitors</gui> +and then <gui>Apply</gui>. You also have the option to create a shortcut to the <gui>Monitors</gui> +application by enabling <gui>Show monitors in panel</gui>, which will then place itself +in the panel. </page> # Begin bundle IyBCYXphYXIgcmV2aXNpb24gYnVuZGxlIHY0CiMKQlpoOTFBWSZTWZaNBw4AAmDfgAAwUOf//3pj nPC////wYAd9YEfWo43ds52u7tHXFUtdsrhKJoQmJpkaZRgCZCbKNPUGmgeiGg0BAEyEaTVG0yQ9 TTaQBiGTRoeoOYTAJgBMJhNMAAAmTTQMJERMimQnkTT0TTZATQGgBpoNGg5hMAmAEwmE0wAACZNN AwkSCJ6Jk1MmlN5PUp6epHlGmZT1MgaAA1CbNtrt9neeStb7kYwyNFN6JKMabpO5waKBUB9L3Ctc zDOSlQd6LGcr9PWPl5P83bGz9MkMHTP57FVST8nZh6fBA/ay+AvOSA7Xp/HHv7xsf2VKawOsjCn8 odJ9f6gvymilMHFpdXdZo2R5GHH+si/PyjbkjlAKEKbpWDaSwqaRhFNKtQGI1Scma4ynbaVj8+Ji 1ZiFdl2VWksNrup6VozLEIMymiw8UW6QDprSn91MZagimEc40SuuasrhBOiSRwm3KcURWisXNWEK atmE4p5evVm2578PU9Lbo12fLJtZZJm7a3uN2jS24xcMGhDw8eTe3ufxohXl5oQtcgU2N3m2WsbB jZXxlIP6++rs9wmANwnbQD51ScL5M0X0HJeK0X4J5NTqHAbgYyKPAgy78+t6t4qcyDK7QqIhLZM0 wlS6znxBHu5KW+HiQEIW6FCxYruwmqqPNxO8XsWQpnHygRyOnfarEZTpLxqhNhPoPdpS3HoqogW7 3jRuscYOwS+y+S28QsdXdOhLH1AkFAQg+cgdBTigFZQ6aMoHS+EBXDSHYErzzMopAHCGDE93JLwj DK5MR3LOxImHFlLKeqa4x2cqSBeOVeNEsCYBZ9u9BgQLSQnlY2HPJeYE950MgFkagujkZSkTh8ZI c841PPFLgRtQK5mMSBWFL3rCAjTY6bwSodL1a8zdALKIupHE4CMgJIfh6vr85j6NOzNJdOa11TiC XPHIahDQSxjIfXbE0M4B59qtKcXVfdtxnK6+rTja1bYc6RdYBBA7OMoIYTjEld4MANCt4mmfPTnC pVhKY2mDbrzwpZEft99kmRQx8nkQciaxe7WxwTaN7TplWZcl+GmMTG/S+8UNJBJIufts+ViIgu/n aF92wqLHBcCp6bb63LfpNSIh8HEqEEpoiW1uc3BkuWMP3tGzGUsyf0eipY5kWFTwypvKeFdP3C5E rNa9SGew74+DNNWdYGrNOgvajSW312eV86Qc2io0iTbCPaBpErwhbRPz+q8oJ91pNP53CbBsbiH1 7MzCqmn5SWOkZcuJzrQz3aZq+MZ012MlaUzSsmB5Hv7NTWsmXKl0biDlKzpooa7HZj4adjxeF6za rZWuy+SJqy2uNNtceyVjeyemFTqhnvQQRqgb4Ooje/doBMoBE2p997HEWr18dXfXJrJcNKvX3wU6 gzDNLlrgE8ExMDQKuakjK4Ysc16N5ANZZcSTiY817KfWU0jqBUD7XIhEE1Oj0r0Tz55DSftXO3Go VeZlzDh8ryiDvSZMRm2SMiocLwOJDbZ0s2lwL/UVGgbvtKT1gbOqrdF51RIzSKXFuxepw0mDQoDS xAkbp2CQHonWsXaNKbYpbE94iGvYqTXbUbiH8RwEksS6qv2SPAaR0PVclZd5qIa4lFeaQUZvfgEa 69WVNhjhAUyu52oltbbC2PFq0kbkE5jiB1eSspLgIKHhbLaHrWqLnvv7Avq+VDY2R3AMJhKESO0R 2msoJSQLgG5Ifx/Io6e+W9xQdcL3HsGRJZGgDCCnYFL6gXCkyZcxcxOBPFbwJGJqsVUGuy4+adQ3 MXiDtYthTEImAcEQVkiSG+uSJabTAfU1H2ascfjyyLMaaN+2QXrVfEJkokUBrokQRm0BhfF3aLWh TC6NnIVHrfAM8GOYIaMDhWrOo+K20vqd4GoMyb2NJsUB9rNQD/SMWK/aNF8wpzMb6WlCaRrlqFex nZ2c+Py7WKrAzG18rF9/JyDT8RdBdBa4etDXRtcgLzgbh4lSiCu/3CYsvA3QhfDFY5rLYqZZvlIr ZKG0x4ZTMxChTHMw3+7H03sgH3tR1bMwzsg3dtGCOWmnVvZ6Frr05ATWW9aYlbkZl3/Z4bEhtuIh eLiUHHByp0r2yC8GkT9q9IevuY47axcBzJL7uIz5ntgMCMQ1YANxAWVd0z38a5uizZPhfZbvYSgC qDaSVXsLPpyZmFqZQzJAHdw6bPwdS25mjhiy3QqfLc8tmkfEgi6skwIu6OOc50BwsjSCmRnF2dAS oUa6fqTAjNBekCS5MK4TlhoWIaott0c2W6+u25NJdzhLMGkdS8FhBKMiwpTWEcERlXYpFjNmgH3q 00c7u4RD9D76emlREBABBCmhs1+Jasv7kGI9SIYKRdVdUR8k7xy0aJOwsSR5zqin1nXD0wIpAQTO oJWuGdiIJXJ5u6ctQ+f/i7kinChIS0aDhwA=</blockquote><div><div> </div><div>Apologies for pinging everyones email.
