>Deepin (tried it out the first time last night) doesn’t “juz werk” with my dualhead setup
>but this time I finally managed to type in the right xrandr settings to make things “good enough”!
>victory!!
>but wait— how to make this start up when I login?
>no autostart commands in Deepin’s simplistic settings
>to summarize the following 2-3 hours: trying to locate multiple files to edit in /etc/ and systemd inits n such which didn’t exist on my system for some reason, learned how to write a simple bash script and make it executable but neither copy-pasting the file nor manually making a desktop file to drop into various autostart folders didn’t work, nor did putting various commands in zsh nor profile nor bash_login did anything…
>now it crashes upon login because of bin/bash/blah / exec dualheadmedammit.sh in profile
>,but you know what I don’t care to pop in a bootable ISO disc to delete that line, I’m just gonna say “screw Deepin and it’s win8-esque, wannabe-mobileOS interface” (as you can tell I wasn't impressed) and wipe the drive and reinstall Manjaro Architect but choosing a different DE
>maybe Budgie or Pantheon just to experiment with something else like I was with Deepin
