i'd need to hook this up with lightdm and MATE and
i have not looked into this at all as to where it might
go, but i'll try the upscaling first and see how the

the newer monitor is
that the scaling of fonts/menus/window sizes is set

you have checked the box for automatically remembering

then, set up your workspaces and when you turn off the

the alternative is to write down the time stamp

pull up the bookmark (click on the bar on the

the thing with these setups is that in Debian you
