So, not so long ago I have made a switch from Win 10 to Linux Mint on my older laptop. I like it, and I have decided to switch to Linux also on my main desktop (to be honest, I’ve realized I don’t actually do anything Windows-specific I can’t do on Linux). I am thinking of trying Debian. I know it’s not the best for total newbies, but I am willing to commit time to learn a thing or two to make it work to my needs (which are not many). I am just worried - would I be able to setup up my two monitors to work? From what I read, it’s not that easy, so that worries me a bit (although, it’s nothing which would stop me from the switch). Can anyone provide an opinion about it, please? Many thanks in advance.

    Dont worry, u still can do gaming.

    FYI steam, who is an actor major, for thé gaming on linux, use debian’s library for proton. U can play easy on single screen, the dualscreen can be tricky regarding your setup.

    You can even go on testing, its stable enough of you have already notions of Linux.
    And just use the official repo, for the rest compile or download the exe (like wine for lutris).

    Your dual screen should work without problem for what you desire first.
