[arch-general] i3wm dual monitor freeze containers primary
Hi, I'm probing archlinux with i3wm tiling window manager. I love it! I come archlinux + kde desktop.
I have a dell xps 13' model 9370. I have a problem when work with two monitors. The primary monitor (laptop) freeze any open container (terminal, program...) randomly in workspace. This only occur in laptop screen.
Something like this:

My xrandr config is:
xrandr --output eDP1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --pos 3440x360 --rotate normal --output DP1 --mode 3440x1440 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output DP2 --off --output HDMI1 --off --output HDMI2 --off --output VIRTUAL1 --off
I try all, debug i3wm with i3-dump-log, and search in google but I can't find the problem.
The workspace freeze and cannot kill containers. The only things is restart lightdm ...
My i3config is very basic.

I'm having similar freezes. I noticed they usually happen when resuming from suspend. How are you running your xrandr config? I think it is being caused by xrandr, but I was not able to pinpoint it exactly. I'm using autorandr here.
I have to kill all users processes, restart the systemd user instance process, and login again.

Hi, my xrandr command is simple:
xrandr --output eDP1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --pos 3440x360 --rotate normal --output DP1 --mode 3440x1440 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output DP2 --off --output HDMI1 --off --output HDMI2 --off --output VIRTUAL1 --off
In my case, with systemctl restart lightdm.service is sufficient.
With KDE, works well. Not freeze.

Sure, but *when* you run it? Is there some automation?
In my case, with systemctl restart lightdm.service is sufficient.
Because that'll kill all the user processes =D
With KDE, works well. Not freeze.
I never tried to use a different WM/DE, but I suspected all along this was an i3 issue only, because the freeze is very weird and specific. I can still switch workspaces, between monitors, but the mouse is stuck.

Anybody with the same problem?? multimonitor with i3wm freeze some screen containers?
I have been using i3wm on a laptop with an extra monitor connected with HDMI cable for almost a year without problems. The only strange behaviour that I noticed, some lag in the movement of the mouse pointer and decreased responsiveness, is when I turn off the laptop screen and use only the external monitor.

Hi, I will mark as solved.
I testing with bspwm and same problem.
I've googled and I found this:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/intel_graphics#Screen_flickering
Enable en grub:
i915.enable_psr=0
And the problem is solved. The primary screen laptop eDP1, cannot freeze anymore, tested every day.
Thanks for all.
