Connecting a second monitor

azange · 2022-08-24 17:59:41

I am quit new to Arch linux and i want to connect a second Monitor. The Problem is it does not work. I have tried it in the past and there it worked but now i will not connect and when i type "xrandr" there is nothing found on HDMI-1. I probably miss something but i really have no idea how to "fix" it.

Welcome. Assuming the monitor is on, and the correct input is selected. After verifying this, please post the actual output of xrandr

Also your xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General and system journal "sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st"

Also please use "code" tags, https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

azange · 2022-08-24 23:00:19

Ok i will do that in the future, but can you help me with my problem

seth · 2022-08-24 23:15:22

No, you'll please edit your post right now.
Then look at post #3 and provide that information, too.
The xrandr output really doesn't say all that much about the situation beyond "yeah, it's not there".

azange · 2022-08-24 23:30:00

thats all the Information i can give you and ewaller asked for the xrandr outpoot. But its ok if you cant help me

azange · 2022-08-24 23:30:54

What?
Your xorg log and the system journal - for the latter I typed in the literla command to feed it into a pastebin service and the former has a link on where to find it.

How did you install archlinux?
