Today I built a couple new openwrt images, with my own custom mwan3 fixes for failover. I added a function that will delete the default route from our kernel routing tables and not just flush the wan routing table. I am not sure what the difference between those things are but it seems to be working for now.

I also worked on my gentoo install for my new desktop computer (hp envy 700). I had to do a bit of reading up on xrandr and X server configs.

$ xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0 # connect our providers
$ xrandr --output VGA-1-1 --auto --right-of VGA-0 # set monitor to the right of the primary

(And yes, I am using vga instead of hdmi.. If you feel sorry for me, feel free to buy me a longer hdmi cable.)

I put this in /etc/init.d/multi-monitor and added it to my default runlevel
