how to keep my settings

[enebre]

Hi,
How can I keep my setting at the next boot, because I have to reconfigure every time my screen configuration, screen resolution, monitor 2 on, monitor 2 off,  and also my webcam is on, so at any reboot I have to switch it off.
I already try to change screen setting in root but no better result.

Hi there,

We will need a bit more information about what version of wattOS you are running (R8 I assume, and what version? LXDE, Openbox, Mate'?) as the answers vary slightly. Also a bit about your hardware setup is helpful also.

Hi ! biffbaxter, Thanks for your answer.
OK I solved the problem of screens settings, I just had to do it twice, one time to set the desktop screen and another time to save the setting.
But I still have the background image not correctly set, the image is not extended to fit the full screen, no big deal I 'll do it by hand every time, I can not save it and so return to fit the laptop screen setting at each reboot.

You may want to do it manually with the XRANDR settings.  I couldn't get the "set twice" option like you stated.

To do this.  Go to /etc/lightdm/

Make the resolution script
#sudo nano xrandrscript

^{#! /bin/sh
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1680x1050 --right-of LVDS}


control X to exit and save

Then point the lightdm.conf to the script

^{#sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
edit
display-setup-script=/etc/lightdm/xrandrscript}




Granted, you'd have to configure the xrandr script to fit your resolutions and monitor configuration...  Hope this helps...
