no, no. ahh, i cant edit your post, so you will have to do it yourself: encase your code or rows of text you want to paste like this, with triple tildes:
```
row1
row2
row3
```
because that is just unreadable, sorry.
anyway, look at this:
display-ID: 0
Monitor-1: DP-2
model: Samsung S24D330
res: 1920x1080
dpi: 92
diag: 609mm (24")
Monitor-2: HDMI-A-1
model: Samsung LS32B30
res: 1920x1080
dpi: 305
diag: 184mm (7.2")
i assume what is happening here is that both two of your monitors are considered by linux as one continuous monitor (otherwise there would be two display-ID: 0 and display-ID: 1), so that might give you some idea, perhaps check your screen settings (sorry, i have no idea how linux mint works, i am using a completely different distro). then, once again, check your scaling and/or DPI, because them being one resolution but different in size made linux think that you need larger scaling, hence larger interface and fonts. if you dont want them as separate workspaces, then, well, youre gonna have to learn how to do linux, i cant babysit this one for you
as for the keyboard, though… everything looks normal. seriously, this is literally the untouched default output. so… if this is happening on wayland (xwayland, because beamNG is an x11 binary, IF run natively) and in a n x11 sessuin, then this might be…
oh.
i have very bad news.
looks like your distro hasnt implemented wayland layouts yet. so it’s a coin flip - linux either detects the hardware of your keyboard correctly - or it doesnt. try connecting another physical keyboard? or maybe try installing KDE - another desktop environment? cinnamon is rather OUTDATED. or, actually… TRY SWITCHING DISTROS altogether? linux mint is good for noobs, but it’s like… ■■■■, ngl
by the way, how does wev and xev commands react to modifier key input? what do they say? (you will need to install these two packages)
as a last resort you can try launching beamMP/beamNG in a container, which has its own settings independant of your system’s (but uses your host graphics). try podman with distrobox, i even have a guide on this forum. i use it to play beamMP, for example
