Why is the linux display manger thing so fucked up?
I have a laptop. 2 fullHD monitors left of it connected over DP.
Works instantly on windows.
On linux - it doesn't. After fucking around with the messed up display manager of XFCE somehow i have my 2 screens on the left working right, but once i move my mouse to the laptop monitor, the 2 full HD displays get "pushed" to the left, and my laptop display also shows on the middle screen.
What the fuck?
I've tried the following with xrandr without luck:
>xrandr --output DP-1 --left-of LVDS1 --output DP-2 --left-of DP-1 Still fucks up
This is what my "display manager" shows. WHY THE FUCK DOES IT NOT WORK LIKE THIS

Because Linux is shit, faggot
Matthew Turner
It just means you are dumb and should just use windows. You obviously don't know shit about Linux.

Using DP ports: gay as fuck.
Josiah Richardson
Then show me how it works you dumbfuck
Henry Fisher
DP ports are nice man you should try some DP some time

I have ALWAYS had buggy shit with linux and graphics, when I tried it. Use Windows and if you have to use linux, do it on a VM. Save yourself a headache.

>xrandr
Use arandr

Well software development on a linux machine is just so much easier and faster... And the weird fucking thing is that it USED to work but after a reboot shites fucked.
gonna try that, thanks

Allright, this is what _this_ program shows..
This is my xrandr output btw;
> DP-1 connected 1920x1080+3120+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm panning 3520x1080+1920+0 tracking 5440x1080+0+0 border 0/0/0/0 > DP-2 connected primary 1920x1080+1200+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm panning 3520x1080+0+0 tracking 5440x1080+0+0 border 0/0/0/0 > DP-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) > DP-4 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) > DP-5 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) > LVDS1 connected 1600x900+3840+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
Fucking garbage

Is one set as primary? Don't know if this even matters or what it means.
Hudson Gomez
I'm not the dumbfuck that can't make a simple monitor setup work.
I told you how, rtfm!
Sebastian Miller
You're obviously a mac using faggot fuck off unless you have information because i'm not the one programming bugged ass software
Also; This is how i set it up now
Christopher Wood
So what's the problem?
David Gomez
Nope, fuck a Mac. Gentoo forevah!
Jason Collins
And this is what happens when i press apply
FUCKING RETARDED PIECE OF SHIT SOFTWARE
see shit shite ^^^^
Christian Wood
Maybe you should file a bug report. And waste even more time then you did already.
Robert Hernandez
Now went back to the XFCE shit and SUDDENLY THIS DISPLAY SHIT WORKS
Hooray for buggy shit
but well i shoulnd't complain because its free
still there are retards merging code into the source that should not fucking be there
This is not a problem, its when using 3 monitors when it fucks up.
Yeah I dont use Gentoo because I sitll like to get laid every now and then

without unix you wouldn't have had your precious little iPhone or Galaxy phone you knobhead
you're just another windows wanker aren't ya? paying for a 64 bit update on a 32 bit extension and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprossessor, written by a 2 bit company that can't stand 1 bit of competition.

NVidia hate Linux users. Simple as that.
They make shitty drivers and don't document their code/hardware so nobody else can make drivers that don't suck.
A few people like working for free so they have started reverse-engineering NVidia's hardware, but this is time consuming, and it's basically volunteer work.
If you want good display support, don't buy NVidia, or just use Windows.

>its called envy not jealousy stale bait

You're right, i'm a fucktard for buying a killer laptop that originally had Windows, and has an NVidia card. If i had a proper graphics driver all of this would not have been an issue.
Anthony Russell
why don't you just go back to windows? if you need linux for something specific, such as MLP fan art or fedora crafting then just run it in a VM. Where it belongs.
Jace Lopez
It is fun watching you rage because you don't really know dick about computers. Thanks for the entertainment fag.
Kayden Moore
it sucks because you suck at linux. go back to windows, please!
Linux community already have enough noob invited from ubuntu/debin shit
