The updates from the last days messed up external monitors discovery!
lenovo x1 extreme here with lenovo thunderbolt pro dock that is connected to 2 ultrawide monitors
nvidia card with 410 drivers
I was using a dock to connect my laptop to 2 external monitors just fine but when installed the updates today it no longer works fine.
Someitmes it sees just 1 of the monitors, sometimes none.
Seems like there are changes in the display control panel menu since we now have different layout there, but the changes on the back end are making it unusable with multiple monitors.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Also im with 410.78 nvidia driver, not sure update would fix it and im hesitant to update it since im with popOS derrivative of Ubuntu 18.10 and that would lose the popOS built-in switch between the intel and nvidia cards.
