Pinebook Ubuntu XFCE screen resolution options - Fox7799 - 11-11-2018

Currently my 11.6" Pinebook only has 1920x1080 screen resolution and I can't connect to another monitor via the hdmi cable. Is there a solution for this? Thanks

If you go into the fonts settings and change the "force font DPI" to 120 (from the default 96), it makes everything a lot easier to see and read. Wink

sddm is the default display manager. Would lightdm or gdm3 give us multiple display options and allow hdmi mirroring on a connected monitor? I installed lightdm and gdm3 but apparently have had no luck in switching to them and don't want to mess up my laptop. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
