Hi, I’m trying to configure my GPU. To do that, i use file named 90-mhwd.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d.
Now I’m not using any display managers. I use startxfce4 command instead. When I logged as root, x11 correctly loads 90-mhwd.conf, but it doesn’t work for common user. In the last case, X11 just ignores /etc/X11/xorg.conf and 90-mhwd.conf. I can change display settings using xfce-display-settings, but I can’t enable triple buffering with it.
