Unable to set native resolution using DP

Hi,
Firstly, I've managed to set native resolution using HDMI, but I consider it workaround only. It took only switching cables and worked instantly.
I have to note that this problem concerns only one of the monitors, so maybe it has faulty DP or something.

Hardware set:

• Intel Core i3-12100

• MSI PRO B660M-A WIFI DDR4

• Two AOC Q24P2Q

I've tried adding new resolution using xrandr:

$ xrandr

I also have this set in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

MODULES=(intel_agp i915)

and use xf86-video-intel and GNOME.

Re: Unable to set native resolution using DP

No, because you're running a wayland session - there're xrandr reports the XWAYLAND0 and XWAYLAND5 dummies and you're not gonna be able to alter the resolution this way, but will have to use the gnome settings.

You could try gnome on xorg on whether this principally works and eg. sway to see whether it's limited to the gnome wayland compositor.
