Hi everyone, since I installed Manjaro in my new PC I haven’t been able to change my second monitor’s resolution, the maximum resolution reported by Manjaro is 960x540, but when I look at what’s my monitor reporting it says 640x480, I have tried many ways to set a custom resolution in xrandr, but I always get this message:
$ xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1600x900_60.00
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 (RRAddOutputMode)
Serial number of failed request: 31
Current serial number in output stream: 32
I have also tried other things, like Custom Screen Resolution, reinstalling Nvidia 390.xx drivers and arandr, with no success. I don’t know what else to do, I feel like I’ve tried everything.
Here’s what xrandr throws:
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 2880 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
