Monitor posts 'Input not supported' [SOLVED]

I was trying to play some TF2 on steam
then my monitor turned black and only displayed Input not supported
with the power button on my monitor flashing
(I only have 1 monitor)

I can use Ctrl + Alt F1-F4
to get to the tty screens

but if I switch back to the one with my GUI (KDE Plasma)
it returns the same message

I tried to use xrandr on the tty screen
but that only states Can't open display

I have tried rebooting my system
but after I get past the login screen

I can sometimes see my programs opening up from the previous session (for a couple second) or it sometimes skips that part
and goes straight back to the same screen

I'm not really sure how I'm meant to fix this

Re: Monitor posts 'Input not supported' [SOLVED]

Did you try 7? I think that's what SDDM uses for the desktop. If you had answered my other question I could offer better advice.

I guess the display manager would be the tty2 screen since that's the login and then that goes to my graphical environment

the tty1 screen
seems to be for the booting in process
and I can't type anything inside of it


display 7 didn't yield any different result
same with 6, 8, 9 and 10

Re: Monitor posts 'Input not supported' [SOLVED]

1. Please use [code][/code] tags. Edit your post #4 in this regard.
2. Running steam etc. w/o a display server is gonna fail
3. "my GUI (KDE Plasma)" : https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE#Un … lution_set
4. "Can't open display: (1-5)" is certainly false, at least SDDM will run on :0, this is completely unrelated to the TTY, GDM starts a second X11 server, but that's very GDM specific
5. please don't stray random newlines into your post

hopefully the quote tags help
don't know what other tags it would need
other than that one bit of blue text

ahh I didn't even see the invalid prompt when I did it for zero I must have overlooked it by mistake it says

Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
Can't open display :0

did I cut off some lines???
I don't really know which one those are
it's hard to tell with my phone

I'll read that article and
try to look up how to open files in tty

Re: Monitor posts 'Input not supported' [SOLVED]

*code* tags and no, you're just randomly hitting the enter key (most likely because of your phone)
SDDM exports the XAUTHORITY to a random position - did you check the link that tells you how to get rid of bogus ksreen settings?

I changed my quote to the code thing

I also CD into it but still not sure how to read the files

it says a string on units and then the output I can also CD into

the first string is

55047dfe3791849804ecb78ad82cf27d

CD of outputs

has a listing string of

2091265d3c8cd2a7548925eac7ded211

I can't use nano here so I'm not sure how I'm meant to
look at the output file

You don't have to reboot, you can just login.
If kscreen was the cause, the outputs will work.

Re: Monitor posts 'Input not supported' [SOLVED]

Because you just deleted them roll
Stop full quoting, you're bloating the thread.

You do still get a GUI login screen?
Login, switch to tty3 (any console will do), login there, query the PID of kwin

pgrep kwin

Use that to get the XAUTHORITY environment

tr '\0' '\n' < /proc/$(pgrep kwin)/environ

export that in the current shell, query xrandr again.

the pgrep kwin

XAUTHORITY - /tmp/xauth_KNtzrQ

but posting the next line just gave me the same results as the pgrep kwin

I don't know what you mean by extort that either ?

"export", literally.

export XAUTHORITY=/tmp/xauth_KNtzrQ # you cannot typo any of this!

pgrep would give you a number.
