Hi James,
great to hear from you! And thanks for helping...
Unfortunately I don't have a .config/monitors* file or directory. *still searching*. but I will try to start from scratch again. On my system, already the framebuffer (during boot) doesn't even show logo or console on the third screen if I am booting kernel 5.2 - that's way before userspace configuration, am I wrong? And also same error with startX from a root shell (I know), which I did to find out if it was some kind of permission problem. It wasn't.
I'll do a quick boot into the 5.2 kernel to catch the xranrd error message...
Which I did. After a lot of flickering (on laptop and screen 1) and with identical config, screen 2 is black, can't be activated by settings tools. KDE's monitor tool denies to activate DP-2-2, but does not return an error.
Now KDE's tool does not show DP-2-1 anymore (not even as deactivated), but xrandr still has the same output and behaviour. Screens flicker badly. I guess I'll stick with kernel 5.1 when I am using external screens. 5.2 is fine, otherwise. -- Best Regards - Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Markus Feilner ------------------------- _"Zu sagen was ist, bleibt die revolutionärste Tat."_ ------------------------- Leitender Redakteur IX - www.heise.de Karl-Wiechert-Alle 10, 30625 Hannover fon: +49 511 53 52 388 mail: mfe@ix.de PGP: 40A3C306F96133067C11CFD9A958A906268C9F0A http://www.feilner-it.net/files/MFpub.asc Xing: http://www.xing.com/profile/Markus_Feilner LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markusfeilner ------------------------- Mindestinformationen nach §37a HGB: Heise Medien GmbH & Co.
