[Blackpool] External Monitor

[Elizabeth C]

Hi All

So I have installed collectd-core and now have use of external monitor -  had to use the zoom out feature on firefox as couldn't get proper resolution....

not perfect, but workable.

There must be a way of adjusting resolution on ext monitor better than I have it?

Hi All

1st time trying to use an external monitor with a small Toshiba (NB100) tablet....

I have the Linux Mint 17 logo on the ext monitor & the mouse arrow but nothing else....  all the icons are remaining on the tablet screen but not appearing on the big screen....

Can some kind soul tell me what I need to do to be able to use the big wide screen instead of the small tablet screen please?

Thanks in anticipation
