He certainly does have his hands full!

I'm confused. (a standard state of being for me...) I thought Dale reported that
he installed Kubuntu on an SSD - or did we just talk about that idea - and he
said all the port problems were ironed out with the open source driver.

What he didn't report was if he installed the nvidia-drivers in Kubuntu. I 
personally wouldn't write off the 'old monitor' until doing at least that.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

ubuntu-drivers list
(make sure the video-card is found)

sudo apt install nvidia-drivers-550
(assuming he has a Quadro P1000 from memory)

reboot

Shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes to try. No real risk as 
he's going to blow away the Kubuntu install anyway.



I do have Kubuntu installed on a 2.5" SSD.  I wasn't sure how to install and switch to the Nvidia drivers.  That was on my todo list as soon as I had some time.  Thing is, the new monitor may get here first.  I just picked a whole gallon ice cream bucket packed full of basil.  It's soaking in the sink now.  Dehydrator comes next.  That takes at least a day to complete.  On the positive side, the house smells really good for a day or so.  LOL 

I also thought of going to boot runlevel on my main rig while in a console, unplug the monitor hooked to my main rig now and plug it into the new rig.  Then boot and see what happens.  It might work.  It's a newer monitor and it's a Samsung instead of a LG.  If it did work, I could switch and switch to new monitor when it gets here.  I plan to use the old Dell rig to watch TV with while I switch.  I can use the backup drives for that.  Moving all these drives could take a while.  O_O

At least now I have the commands needed to try it tho.  That helps.  :-D 

Michael, I did try the settings you posted.  I thought I tried them and posted a reply.  I may have missed one tho.  This is a long thread.  This monitor has been a serious PITA.  :-@ 

Back to the basil.  Glad my meds are working pretty good.  -_O
