How to config a 18.04.01 server with 2 monitors
I have a machine with 2 monitors running 18.04.01 server.
both monitors are clones, one of the other.
I have no way to go on the second display because there is no active mouse.
Now, if I Alt + F1 to Alt + F6, both monitors instantly switch to the required console.
My question is about to configure the machine running two separate monitors, each one able to display a different tty, and have the ability to move between the monitors maybe activating the mouse.
