Dual monitors not working on Dell xps 13 9350 with Ubuntu 18
Recently I installed Ubuntu 18.04.2 along side windows on my xps. I use a thunderbolt to HDMI to connect to a second display. When I boot into windows both displays work, but on Ubuntu my monitor does not detect a signal. When I go to setting to look at the devices/ display it shows my monitor as if it was connected. Not sure how to go about troubleshooting

Try
sudo apt install bolt
Ensure you have all of the drivers available to you (there is an operating system drop down)
