Hey GhostBSD fam,

I just got GhostBSD up and running on my laptop, super stoked about it! But I've hit a snag with my external monitor. I plugged it in with an HDMI cable, but my laptop isn't acknowledging its existence.

I have poked around the display settings and done some digging online, but no luck so far. Anyone else faced this ghost of a problem? Any tips on how to get GhostBSD to recognize my external monitor would be a huge help.
I also check this: Install (Upgrade) GhostBSD 18.10: Only mirrorscreening on external monitoralteryx But I have not found any solution.

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Regards

Perhaps install the full xorg server.

pkg install xorg-server

Reboot and try again

If you are using MATE, there is a display option that should recognize your second monitor and allow you to use select an option to use it.

If you do not see a second monitor displayed, then please let us know what hardware you are using.
