When I boot with my Radeon RX 480 on an HDMI output, Arch uses the correct resolution (1600x900). It's a bit faulty so sometimes I resort to using the iGPU since I don't do anything graphics intensive on Linux. In this case, it always boots on 1280x768 as per the title. `xrandr` or `autorandr` fixes it but it's not persistent. Is there no way around hardcoding it under the `xorg.conf.d` directory?

Why does it repost when I edit..?

Did you hit the back button in your browser rather than the explicit edit button added in/on the post?
In any case: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#Monitor_settings ignore the fact this talks about a dummy device, you only need a Monitor section where the Identifier line is the same name as identified by xrandr, i.e. VGA-1
so in this case something like
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "VGA-1"
Option "PreferredMode" " 1280x768_60.00"
EndSectionpost the output of xrandr if this doesn't work
FWIW while we're here, using /dev/sda as your root and resume identifiers is quite prone to breakage, if you have a usb stick or so plugged in this can trivially change to sdb or so and break your boot, use persistent device/partition identifiers https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Persis … ice_naming

An alternative approach might be to extract the EDID when booting the AMD GPU and inject that, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel … s_and_EDID
A couple of things in your OP frankly don't add up at all.
You claim "the correct resolution (1600x900)" us used after "`xrandr` or `autorandr` fixes it" otherwise "it always boots on 1280x768" but the only modes available in that log are

Sanity check, do you have i915 in the initramfs for https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel … _KMS_start ?

Weirdly enough, after rebooting a few times while testing keyboard configs, it works like normal... yet another faulty hardware?
Did you hit the back button in your browser rather than the explicit edit button added in/on the post?
I thought the preview was broken so I went back a few times, that might've been it. My bad.
The config you sent is what I meant by "hardcoding" (the specific resolution and settings). Is that okay though? Is it going to give me a blank screen if I plug in a smaller monitor without editing the config beforehand?
Since the resolution is now okay I'm not sure if it's going to have any effect, but at least it's not crashing immediately on login, which is a first timer since I began editing xorg configs. Maybe I should remove it and wait until I'm having problems again to test it?
FWIW while we're here, using /dev/sda as your root and resume identifiers is quite prone to breakage,
Thank you, I didn't know that. I'll look into labeling the drive.
and there's no hint of any other mode ever being used.
I didn't run the script during that session, or `fixmonitor.sh` as I call it.

Despite Googling around I still can't figure out how to edit/view initramfs. I don't have any `initramfs*` under`/etc/`. Am I missing anything?

The link kinda details what todo - if you don't have the kms hook or i915 in the modules array, add the latter.
You can "sudo lsinitcpio /boot/initramfs-linux.img" to inspect the present initramfs (and grep it for i915 if you don't want to read all of it ![]()
