  • Connect laptopTo Tv Through Serial Port

    ok so here what I did

    I ssh in too my laptop

    navigated to cd .config

    typed in nano

    then made a file

    #!/bin/sh

    xrandr --output LVDS1 --off

    and saved it as

    - vi autostart.sh

    restarted it and nothing has changed

    I then edited the file name and saved it with out the - at the start

    as in vi autostart.sh

    tried restarting it and seems to be stuck on a loop black screen so I reinstalled and back with the half screen display

    noob question how do I make the nano file

    thanks again

    thanks again

    so the FN buttons don't work

    however there's light at the end of the tunnel

    when I use this command "xrandr --output LVDS1 --off"

    I get full screen although the display looks like inverted colours

    Then when I use this command after it "systemctl restart kodi"

    and everything looks fine full screen working fine.

    but when I restart the laptop it goes back too small screen again

    is there a way of saving it too full screen setting so I don't have too keep putting in

    xrandr --output LVDS1 --off

    systemctl restart kodi
