Hello everyone,
after a fresh install of Manjaro XFCE, the right screen (3 screens - notebook + 2 monitors) has a stripe on the bottom half. I saw in the graphik hardware configuration (UHD Graphics 620 Intel Corporation) that 3 display controllers are displayed in the submenu:
video-linux is installed
video modesetting is not installed
video-vesa is not installed
Should I install 2. and 3. too?
For intel cards the modesetting usually is the best.
You can add i915 to the MODULES array in mkinitcpio.conf - then rebuild
sudo mkinitcpio -P
No.
But you didn’t provide any more info, so you could do that, rather than anything else…
I typed in a Terminal ans installed. And now? P.S.: I wanted to say what shell I else do!
I did!

Unfortunately the problem still exists. How can I switch to video mode setting? Or should I do something else first?
P.S. I managed to switch to the video mode setting driver in the graphical module. Unfortunately no change. The right monitor still shows an approximately 1 cm wide horizontal shadow at the bottom of the image.
Now what could be the reason?

Do you use a Dock? If so see the thread for instructions to disable it.
Do you use a Dock at the bottom? If so disable the shadow for it in the compositor settings for Xfce.

That was exactly the problem! I was able to deactivate the shadow in the fine settings for window management. I switched the graphics driver back to video-linux
Thank you very much!
Hello again,
I would like to say that I have reinstalled the video modesetting driver. The reason is that the left screen sporadically went black. Now I’m testing with the open source driver!
