I have a Lenovo T470p with an Nvidia 940MX video card. I also have a docking station with two BENQ GW2765 monitors connected. I am also using Plasma 5 (or KDE or whatever).
My monitor setup is like the following
+----------------------++----------------------+
| || |
| BENQ || BENQ |
| 2560x1440 || 2560x1440 |
| || |
| || |
+----------------------++----------------------+
+---------------------+
| Built In |
| 1920x1080 |
| |
+---------------------+
For a total size of 5120x2520 [output of xrandr] :
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 5120 x 2520, maximum 16384 x 16384
My problem is the following. Randomly, maybe around 25% of the time I dock the laptop when the screens get reoriented I get a black dead spot on the upper right monitor, the monitor is displaying at the right resolution however,
the Screen 0 size in xrandr stays smaller
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 3520 x 2520, maximum 16384 x 16384
So it looks like this:
+----------------------++----------------------+
| || ###############|
| || ###############|
| || ###############|
| || ###############|
| || ###############|
+----------------------++----------------------+
+---------------------+
| |
| |
| |
+---------------------+
Furthermore forcing it with a command:
UPPER_LEFT="DP-1-3-1"
UPPER_RIGHT="DP-1-3-2"
LAPTOP="eDP-1-1"
sleep 1
xrandr --output "$UPPER_LEFT" --primary --mode "2560x1440" --output "$UPPER_RIGHT" --mode "2560x1440" --pos "2560x0" --output "$LAPTOP" --mode "1920x1080" --pos "1600x1440"
Gives:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 7 (RRSetScreenSize)
Serial number of failed request: 48
Current serial number in output stream: 49
I have further noticed that if I overlay the screens on top of eachother (or at least such that I'm only displaying 3520 pixels the upper monitor will dipslay everything.
If I simply restart X, it is normal but very annoying. The only other thing I have noticed is that normally there are times when I can't reset the dpi with xrandr --dpi 96. I normally like to force it to be 96, but occasionally I get a similar error.
Even more annoying when making this post I tried to get the xrandr --dpi 96 error, however when I ran that, it fixed the above issue, that is the black area went away (although my lower monitor got disabled). When I reran the xrandr command shown above, all monitors worked again.
