#Windows render incorrectly on external display.

Not sure how to explain, but when I open either steam, or the kitty terminal, they "take a screenshot" of the area they would have covered, and that is all they show. But this only happens on my external display... not on my laptop's display. When I launch the item on the external and drag it over to the laptop's, then it's still broken. But vice-verca work's fine.

I am on XFCE mint.

#

It only happens if I set my external display as my main monitor, and I would like to do that.

Can verify that the resolution of the monitor is set properly? There will be a Display option in the menu in which you can check or set this.

Also, can you share a picture of the issue you are facing?

fixed it by doing this: (sad laptop noises)

sudo apt install nvidia-prime
sudo prime-select nvidia

I was able to take a screenshot for once

then put prime into startup applications if it isn't.
