Cannot set XWAYLAND's custom resolution

Xwayland couldn't detect my native resolution for some reason, so I followed this guide and applied everything except the last/output part:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xrandr … esolutions

Currently, xrandr gives me this output:

Screen 0: minimum 16 x 16, current 1366 x 768, maximum 32767 x 32767
XWAYLAND0 connected primary 1360x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 410mm x 230mm
   1360x768      59.62*+
   1024x768      59.68  
   800x600       59.47  
   640x480       59.38  
   320x240       59.52  
   720x480       59.71  
   640x400       59.20  
   320x200       58.96  
   1280x720      59.65  
   1024x576      59.58  
   864x486       59.45  
   720x400       59.55  
   640x350       58.91  
   1368x768_60.00  59.88  

Whenever I try to apply xrandr --output XWAYLAND0 --mode 1368x768_60.00, it gives me this error

                                                                                                         
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  140 (RANDR)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  21 (RRSetCrtcConfig)
  Value in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  22
  Current serial number in output stream:  22

I presume this happened due to erroneous output of cvt 1366 768 command - since it gave me 1368x768 resolution instead of 1366x768; here's the output of it:

cvt 1366 768 
# 1368x768 59.88 Hz (CVT) hsync: 47.79 kHz; pclk: 85.25 MHz
Modeline "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync

KDE's/kscreen display setting shows that I'm using 1366x768. Anyone have a suggestion or solution to this? It would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Re: Cannot set XWAYLAND's custom resolution

You cannot manipulate randr this way on xwayland - there is no physical output, only the wayland emulation that exists as a dummy interface so that xrandr calls of X11 clients don't abort.

Whatever you want to achieve will have to be done through the compositor.
=> What's the actual problem you're trying to solve?

Re: Cannot set XWAYLAND's custom resolution

I'm just trying to have games use the full resolution of my monitor, which, in this case, it's 1366x768 instead of 1360x768, but I guess that's not possible with xwayland without specific tweaks I'm not aware of.

Re: Cannot set XWAYLAND's custom resolution

Get the edid from /sys/class/drm/*/edid (you can also pipe it through edid-decode yourself, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/edid-decode-git )

Here's a valid 1366x768 modeline, but don't expect to be able to add that to xwayland - let alone permanently or this way.

% cvt12 1366 768 60 -b
# 1366x768 @ 60.000 Hz Reduced Blank (CVT) field rate 60.000 Hz; hsync: 47.400 kHz; pclk: 68.54 MHz
Modeline "1366x768_60.00_rb2"  68.54  1366 1374 1406 1446  768 776 784 790 +hsync -vsync
