What is the keyboard shortcut to toggle mirrored mode? I was not

It is vendor-dependent. My Lenovo is Fn+F7. There's usually some hint
on the F keys as to which one does what in "function" mode. Look for
this kind of thing:

It will *probably* work under Fedora. I have noticed that it works at
the login screen and when logged in but not at the screen unlock screen.

Thanks. I found the key that I thought should be it before sending my
last reply. Unfortunately that key did not do anything. I was hoping
that there might have been a Fedora key sequence.

Those custom vendor shortcuts may or may not be supported by Fedora, depending
on the particular laptop model you have.

But the certain way to see if your second monitor is detected is to look at
the output of xrandr in the console.

HTH, :-)
