Can't change my resolution

I visited the official xrandr archwiki tutorial and I have this output:

Re: Can't change my resolution

None device is simpledrm software renderer and not your actual device. What's your system and hardware? If nvidia did you install the correct packages? Post the link you get from

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

if you're using one of the older AUR nvidia packages, they need a patch for compatibility with the new GCC libs: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=295600
