trying to set config to a new screen or screen 0 and then saving the config does nothing. rebooted still not changed.
lmk what you need to work out why this isn’t working as I’ve spent 2 hours just to get 1 of my secondary screens back and have got pretty much nowhere past that. config has the other screen
oh this is fkkin stupid… in nvidia x server you can change a display from disabled to anything and it legit just doesn’t work. seems to just be a useless button, nothing makes sense with x server it seems
