But I remember Wayland has nothing to do with X and draws the UI directly on the fb unless your app requires Xwayland... Did I get it right??? So you might wish to check out the KMS settings... I'm afraid... RW

[arch-general] Problem regarding Resolution on Nvidia
by Junayeed Ahnaf 02 Jun '17

02 Jun '17

Hello, I am using nvidia proprietary driver on arch linux (GNOME with Wayland), My HDMI port broke so I connected my monitor using DVI ports (with VGA adapter since my monitor does not have any DVI output). Now my aspect ratio is fixed on 4:3. I can't make it to 16:9 nor can I use 1920*1080. Steps I've taken : 1. Following archwiki I tried to create a new rule for xrandr but it failed 2. I tried editing xorg.conf refresh rate and it added some weird resolution but still no 16:9 3. Added subsection on "Screen" defining resolution, it did not do anything ;( What can I do? Any suggestion will be helpful. Thanks in advance. J Sent from Nylas Mail<https://n1.nylas.com/link/5ba4f02ea2b0084a1a5ba0fbbe6dee6293853c593b984a854…>, the best free email app for work

[arch-general] Mirrors not syncing?
by Steven Noonan 22 May '17

22 May '17

None of the mirrors are listed as "successfully syncing mirrors", or even as "out of sync mirrors" for that matter. http://i.imgur.com/KW8Rmd9.png https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/status/ Presumably it can't make a determination one way or another about their sync status since it's failing to connect to all of them?

[arch-general] Disable auto-detection of a specific monitor
by Maxence Sartiaux 18 May '17

18 May '17

Hello, I'd like to know if there's a possibility to disable the auto-detection of a specific monitor / output. I explain my case, i have three monitor & a KVM PCI-Passthrough setup for gaming. When i start my vm i turn off my principal monitor via a libvirtd hook and it switch to windows. My second screen have a KVM switch between arch GPU & Windows GPU Third screen only on arch. When i switch the KVM for the second screen, Xorg re-detect my primary screen and turn it On, but i can't see all my windows because the monitor is still switched on the Windows GPU. My arch GPU is a GTX980 running on proprietary drivers. Thank you Have a good day.

It would be my honor to do it if they accept image file............ :( OMG!? One pass is not enough!? Oh, look at the SILLY thing I've done!! BTW, switched to BTRFS last night. It seemed that the new file system agrees more with my Kingston drive than F2FS. :P RW Neven Sajko via arch-general <arch-general(a)archlinux.org> wrote: >Did you notice the "kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:992" line in the >kernel log?
