If this was on nvidia back before nouveau, I can believe it. nvidia's drivers have never supported xrandr, so you need to do everything through their proprietary tools. My thinkpad hotplugs displays with no trouble at all these days, but I vaguely recall having trouble with nvidia's drivers about five years ago.
- drivebyacct2 13y agonvidia's supported xrandr for some time now. I can attest, monitors used to be my worst nightmare in Linux and now I laugh when people haul that lame excuse out right after "But DRIVERS!? and GAMES?!". I can't remember the last time I had issues - in fact, the only issue I had was easily worked around in Linux because of bad monitor EDID data.
- gizmo686 13y agoNvidia's drivers now support xrandr.
- tene 13y agoFantastic; I'm glad to hear it. I've been using nouveau for the past couple of years because of this issue; sounds like it's time to try nvidia's drivers again.
