Hello.
I installed linux mint with a lot of problems.
When I wanted to start for the first time, linux mint stay at a blackscreen after the login. I solved this installing property controllers for my graphic card. But later, I saw that if I select my integrated graphic card I can use the laptop screen, and if I select the dedicated (nvidia 1050) I can use only and external screen using HDMI port.
I know that the HDMI port is connected to the nvidia graphic card, but I need to use both screens, and I don't know how to solve this.
I can use the two screens in windows, but is not the same in linux.
At this time I'm using the laptop screen because I selected the intel graphic card in Nvidia panel.
Actually I am using linux mint 19.2 xfce. However I had the same problem with linux mint 19.2 MATE.
