Only one monitor after update

I have just made:

sudo pacman -Syu

and I can only see one of my external monitors.
With inxi I can’t see it:

Hi @mgazzin,

That’s probably because of a driver, seeing as both graphics cards are detected no problem. So please provide the out of:

mhwd --list
mhwd --listinstalled

as well as

xrandr

and

xrandr --listproviders

Thanks @Mirdarthos
Here you are!

Hmm, both show as connected…Have you checked everything’s set in the settings?

Please run the following and provide the output(s) of:

glxinfo | grep server

…and:

prime-run glxinfo | grep server

Edit:

As well as:

pamac list --installed | grep --ignore-case 'nvidia'

Hi @Mirdarthos , if you mean in the cabling everything looks good.

Nah, don’t mean cabling. That['s good, here’s proof:

I mean software settings. In whatever DE you use. (I think it’s Xfce, in which case I can’t guide you more, as I have never used it, so don’t know what is where.)

But your outputs show only your Nvidia card is begin used, which I don’t think is what you want…but I can’t read minds, so I’m obviously not sure…and don’t really know where to go from here…

:thinking:

Edit:

Perhaps you’ll benefit from this:

I am completely unsure, though.

So your external Monitor is connected on DP-1 ?

Must be this one?

It is clearly your internal card then.

And where is this one connected? Nvidia?

If you can only see DP-1/0 here, then the Intel GPU must the primary one, thus you have to switch to the nvidia card again, so make it primary, Intel cannot work with Nvidia in multscreen mode since nvidia cannot do “multiscreen” with modesetting what intel requires.

Yes, I have two monitors, one is connected to NVidia through HDMI and the other the internal card through DP. Or there is another way to have two monitors?
How can I switch the NVidia card and make it secondary?

Prime-reverse is called this method and Managers like “optimus-manager” and “envycontrol” can do the work for you. You can do it with simple text files, if you have knowledge about it.

I guess before “the update” you didn’t install the nvidia driver. The nouveau driver takes place then. It can do “multiscreen” instantly with i915, but the driver is rather buggy and limited, especially for newer cards.

Thanks @megavolt . Could you please tell me what is the exact procedure?
When I was making pacman -Syu I have got a message that it could’nt update because old nvidia drivers. So I disinstalled NVidia with mhwd --remove pci video-linux, made the update and reinstalled mhwd --install pci video-linux. Is this wrong?

Exact output?

video-linux is a config (not the driver), which contains all open source drivers, such like Intel and Amd. So a bad idea.

I don’t have now the exact output of the message.
Sorry, I made mhwd --remove pci video-nvidia and mhwd --install pci video-nvidia

Normally this should be installed when you have only a nvidia card. On Hybrid, it must be video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime.

After setup, install one of the managers.

More details here:

Both are in the official Repo.

Should I now remove video-nvidia and video-linux and install video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime ?

No, just remove video-nvidia and install video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime. Then you have the standard, where intel is primary and you can offload to the nvidia. The managers do the “magic” and switch to nvidia card on demand, so that the HDMI Port is available.

It works!
I did not know I should use video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime
