Hello All,
I have ARCH running both LTS (5.15.87-1) and mainline (6.1.5-arch2-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC) which is having trouble driving two monitors over a USB-C based monitor with DP 1.2 with a chained setup of DP across to a second monitor
The setup works on Windows 11, but with Linux on this Lenovo P43s, it's not, am I missing something in modprobe and/or X11 .conf
I've dumped some info here to help,

Remove xf86-video-intel and check whether you can reproduce, and please use bbcode code tags instead of markdown for pasting outputs.

wow that was quick! I was just fixing up my most
I'll give removing xf86-video-intel a removal and see how it goes, thanks
Offline
unfortunately no look @v1del, purged xf86-video-intel and still can't get two of the external displays up, It detects them but won't turn both on, only laptop + 1x external, and either or,
any ideas to get more debug info out?

which is having trouble driving two monitors over a USB-C based monitor with DP 1.2 with a chained setup of DP across to a second monitor
Brand & model of your system/motherboard ?
Is the usb-c connection directly to a physical port on that system or through an external device ?
Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.
clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
