Hello,
I have a dual graphics notebook (Razer Blade 2019) to which I connected an external monitor via HDMI. The HDMI port is directly connected to the RTX 2080 graphics card. A while back I installed Manjaro and both monitors were working fine out of the box with the (default) video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime driver. Now at some point in the past few weeks (likely due to an update) the external display must have stopped working. Since I didn’t have the external display connected for at least 3 weeks or so, I can’t tell exactly when it happened. Also, to my knowIedge, I didn’t change anything graphics related since then and the display works as soon as I restart and boot into Windows… so the monitor/cable isn’t broken.

xrandr --listproviders:
Providers: number : 0
I’m assuming, the problem has to do with no provider being listed and the graphics card being listed as turned off?
I’d be glad if someone could help. I’d just like things to work again since everything was working fine before.
