drunk without my knowledge ?

uhhhh I wrote that code you said then just pgrep but it didn't post any sort of number

seth · 2024-01-03 15:53:24

Of course not, pgrep expects an argument.
I'm gonna ask a last time and then immediate answer myself:
Q: How did you install archlinux?
A: Not.

So what kind of distribution are you actually running?
Some arch derivate? Ubuntu? SteamOS? WSL?

----
"drunk" like you're doing and writing incoherent nonsense and are clearly not capable of maintaining the system or following even the most basic instructions.

I just followed a guide on how to install it
what argument does it need?

seth · 2024-01-03 15:59:21

Any kind of filter - what did you think "pgrep kwin" did?
Why are we talking about this? You have the XAUTHORITY environment, export it, then query xrandr.

I just followed a guide on how to install it

You mean some idiot on youtube?

it says
bash: query: Command not found

when I write query xrandr

yeah pretty much
have ran into some issues so far but they have been pretty easy to deal with

I just don't really know a lot of my basics
so I'm mostly just learning bits as the problems come up

V1del · 2024-01-03 21:46:43

Querying xrandr means just running the xrandr command and check the information it provides.

But seriously, you are lacking complete basics and are generally way out of your depth here. Arch Linux is not a distribution you want to start with with linux -- and if you still want to, you need to not skip things and do a lot of reading to get your knowledge up to speed -- which is why the only installation method that's actually supported here is following the official installation guide. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide

You'll also still have to define the display, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 8#p2140948

oh it posts a list of all available sizes now
is this where I do mode 1920x1080 then refresh 60?

HDMI-1 seems to be 1024x576+0+0

when I tried
it returned a

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -s 0
Failed to change the screen configuration!

so I'm guessing that's not the way I'm meant to set it then

yeah I thought my knowledge was only a bit off for the most part but it seems I have glossed over a lot of the basics without realising

I'll look into the basics and try to at least build that knowledge up once my pc is working
because searching with a phone is annoying

seth · 2024-01-04 08:39:26

"xrandr -s 0" is complete nonsense, stop flailing around. "xrandr --help" covers the usage basics.
Don't flail around! You already struggle to follow instructions, going by yourself will probably make things worse.

Post the xrandr output

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --verbose | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st # this uploads it and gives you a url to share

This seems so strange for an HDMI connection nowadays... (not impossible, but strange)
I'm wondering if you've messed up with GPU drivers...

What's your physical setup? Are you actually connected to an HDMI port? Are you using some sort of adapters? Has your external monitor an HDMI input?
Please post here:

# lspci -k

It produces

seth · 2024-01-04 09:12:29

No, it produces https://0x0.st/H6Ow.txt

Something set a doublescan mode

1024x576 (0x77) 98.500MHz -HSync +VSync DoubleScan *current

I'm not entirely convinced that you properly fixed kscreen, because it's on the record for that.

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --auto

Then return to the GUI TTY

Yeah I'm using a HDMI
I'm not sure why it's 1024x576 myself
my default resolution was 1920z1080

which part of the Ispci -k do you want ?

The audio devices
USB controllers
Encryption controller
VGA compatible controller
Non-essential instrumental
Host bridge
PCI bridge

seth · 2024-01-04 09:16:24

"l"spci, not "Ispci" and you could have uploaded that the same way as the xrandr output, but I don't think that's the issue here.

I did the display thing
because I think the other thing you said
was just you showing how it is at the moment

and when I returned to the GUI tty it produced the same message

Again: are you somehow drunk?
xrandr --auto selects the default mode for all outputs and according to the edid that's gonna be

1920x1080   60.000000 Hz  16:9     67.500 kHz    148.500000 MHz (477 mm x 268 mm)

You can also try "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --mode 1920x1080", but you'll either get an error or the current mode (indicated by an asterisk in "xrandr -q") will change.

DISPLAY:0 xrandr
shows the *
by 1024x576 59.5

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --mode 1920x1080
by itself says it needs output
if I put --output before --mode
then it says 1920x1080 is unrecognisable
even though I see it after posting

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr

and xrandr -q
gives a can't open display
but putting DISPLAY:0 in front of it
gives the same results as

DISPLAY:=0 xrandr

Please, in order to gather decent formatted outputs, reboot once into safe graphics (add nomodeset and vga=771 to the Kernel parameters) and post hereb:

# lspci -k

# cat /proc/cmdline

$ ls -al ~/.local/share/

$ ls -al ~/.config/

# ls -alR /etc/X11/

# cat /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

# dmesg
