Hi all,

I have a Dell Latitude E6430 shipped with this Nvidia device:

My Laptop has VGA and HDMI output, both are used inorder to get a triple 
display system: on board screen + one on VGA, one on HDMI.

Do you have special recommandation on which driver to install and any 
tip relative to that hardware?

Note: Currently using Fedora it works quite well, but I really want to 
give a try to ARch and want to get my screens as soon as possible :-)

Thanks for your help.
