Where does the xrandr command go? Neither the web page you reference
nor the xrandr man page gives any clue.
STARTX <https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.6/doc/man/man1/startx.1.xhtml>
Some parts of the xrandr I was able to figure out quickly. Other parts,
I spent a huge amount of time on, and I've got educated guesses, but I'm
still not sure.
left monitor: 1920 x 1080.
right monitor: 2560 x 1440.
What I think the xrandr command should be:
-----
xrandr --fbmm 5920x3330 --output DP-0 --pos 3360x0 --mode 2560x1440
--scale 1x1 --primary --output HDMI-0 --pos 0x0 --mode 1920x1080 --scale
1.75x1.75

But I still don't get where to put the command. It seems to me that
this should be taken care of during boot-up, before the log-in screen is
displayed. I don't see how startx helps. On my work station, I don't
see any of the files listed by the startx web page you referenced:
-----
bash.15[~]: ls -a X* x* .X* .x*
ls: cannot access 'X*': No such file or directory
ls: cannot access 'x*': No such file or directory
ls: cannot access '.X*': No such file or directory
.xfce4-session.verbose-log .xscreensaver
.xournal:
. .. recent-files
bash.16[~]: su -

-bash.1[~]: cd /usr/lib/
-bash.2[lib]: ls -a X* x* .X* .x*

ls: cannot access 'x*': No such file or directory
ls: cannot access '.X*': No such file or directory
ls: cannot access '.x*': No such file or directory
-bash.3[lib]:

Also, Tim's Friday night (Colorado time) post suggests none of this is
needed.
How do I proceed?
