    Try using "save as" in the monitor(s) tool. If that doesn't work we will get into something else.

    see if the old monitor app works for you,

    sudo apt-get install lxrandr

    this is also not only an lxle problem/issue

    you won't see a password being entered in the terminal, its a security feature, this is the case with all terminals. Just type it in, regardless if you see it or not and hit enter.
