Hi, I'm working on upgrading my desktop environment and tried linking my Ubuntu Lenovo laptop to two external monitors. It seems this model only allows one internal and one external display, and the USB-C port just handles data transfer—not video output. My question is: can I connect a second monitor? Would using a USB-C to HDMI adapter or a USB 3.0 to HDMI hub help? Or am I limited to just one external screen? Ultimately, I want to use the laptop's two video outputs and connect them to a KVM unit while keeping the other PC connected, so switching between systems becomes easier.
