- When I restart the machine, xrandr detects and projector/monitor on DP1 as connected. As soon as try anything through xrandr/lxrandr/arandr, DP1 output gets disconnected.

- I tried setting DP1 as --primary and now the monitor is connected but laptop screen is switched off. However, I am unable to do anything because the screen resolution does not match and I am unable to see an open a terminal on the monitor.
In my case, it didn't even detect. The xrandr commands I used forced it to display. I used only mirror mode to be safe (and I guess it's the default)
Any suggestions on what I should try?
The above commands didn't work?
No. I mean, the default desktop screen showed up on the monitor but I couldn't change it.
