Hi there,
I’ve just finished installing Manjaro in my laptop with all the proprietary drivers as per the installation options, but my external monitor is not being recognized. I’ve selected the “Configure new displays when connected” option under Settings Manager > Display and tried to reboot, but with no result.
It uses integrated intel graphics as well as Nvidia, and I’ve read around these forums different options but I’m just quite lost about what to do exactly. Please any help is much appreciated.
