Sometimes I need to pick it up and go somewhere, disconnecting monitors in the process
All workspaces get relocated on internal laptop display, all good here
When I come back and re-connect the monitors, all workspaces stay on the internal display, and monitors get two fresh unnamed workspaces
Here is my related part of the config:
$ws1=1
$ws2=2
$ws3=3
$ws4=4
$ws5=5
$ws6=6
$ws7=7
$ws8=8
$ws9=9
$ws10=10
$ws11=11
$ws12=12
$ws13=13
monitor=eDP-1,2880x1920@120,0x1080,2
# This sets up monitors based on which are connected at the time
exec = /home/denast/.config/hypr/monitor-setup.sh
workspace=$ws1,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws2,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws3,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws4,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws5,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws6,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws7,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws8,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws9,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws10,monitor:desc:Dell Inc. DELL E2318HR 813CF06GARGB
workspace=$ws11,monitor:eDP-1
workspace=$ws12,monitor:eDP-1
workspace=$ws13,monitor:desc:Hewlett Packard HP E202 6CM023166P
And here is monitor-setup.sh:
(basically, it's a simple script that sets up the monitors based on which of them are connected)
#!/usr/bin/env bash
get_monitor_name() {
hyprctl monitors -j | jq -r '.[] | select((.model | type == "string" and contains($search)) or (.description | type == "string" and contains($search))) | .name' --arg search "$1"
}
# Get monitor names based on partial matches
hp_monitor=$(get_monitor_name "HP")
dell_monitor=$(get_monitor_name "DELL")
laptop_monitor=$(get_monitor_name "BOE")
home_monitor=$(get_monitor_name "LG")
# Check if we're at work (both monitors present)
if [[ -n "$hp_monitor" && -n "$dell_monitor" ]]; then
echo "at work"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${dell_monitor},1920x1080@60,0x0,1"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${hp_monitor},1600x900@60,1920x0,1,transform,3"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${laptop_monitor},2880x1920@120,0x1080,2"
elif [[ -n "$home_monitor" ]]; then
echo "at home"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${home_monitor},2560x1440@144,0x0,1"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${laptop_monitor},disabled"
else
echo "standalone"
hyprctl keyword monitor "${laptop_monitor},2880x1920@120,0x0,2"
fi
One important detail I've also noticed is that on reconnect, both monitors get a new set of DP-X names. On boot they are called DP-9 and DP-10, and after reconnect they become DP-11 and DP-12. I'm also using a type-c dual hdmi adapter which might be a cause of issue? I've tried using desc: to make sure workspaces are matched to the actual physical monitor, not DP-X name, but if it still uses it under the hood, it might cause this issue
