Running 2560x1080 on LG 29UM57-P on an old MacBook Pro OSX El Capitan

Yes. A mid-2011 MacBook Pro running OSX El Capitan can drive a 2560x1080 monitor via HDMI.
I was not able to get 60 Hz working. I am settling with 53 Hz. I tried many settings before finding something that works. The refresh rate seems fine to me. Maybe the text could be clearer but for a $200 monitor running this resolution, I'll take it. Apple MacBook 2015 retina resolution is 2560 x 1800.

There are many ways to do this depending on your platform. Google it.

(2) Install and run the Docker container for Statsd and Graphite

Refer to https://github.com/hopsoft/docker-graphite-statsd

The instructions infer that you can run the container without specifying port mappings. This is plain wrong. So use the following command to start the container:

docker run -d --name graphite --restart=always -p 80:80 -p 8125:8125/udp hopsoft/graphite-statsd It is not necessary to enable Graphite's UDP listener. Statsd receives metrics via UDP and forwards them to Graphite over TCP. (3) On Windows and OSX, determine the IP address of the graphite Docker container

On Linux, you can use localhost.

On Windows and OSX, there are…
