PCLOS plug-and-plays with an external monitor - can we have this with LL ?

They use MATE and KDE so either that's the difference, or they are using newer or patched packages, or newer kernel. You'd have to ask them how they achieve this.
Thanks Jerry.  When they finally accept my request for membership I'll be able to ask them how they achieved this (application for membership of the
PCLOS forum is via e-mail) - not a straightforward as with LL membership!

I'm using the KFCE version of PCLOS (produced by the PCLOS community & officially supported with updates by their repository),
not the MATE or KDE versions.  The kernel on the KFCE version I'm using is 4.6.

Following on from the above, I did enquire at the PCLOS forum - they said it was excellent hardware compatibility combined with a more up-to-date kernel, though seemed to be keeping schtum about giving away any further details which is a bit of a shame ...
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
