I will post my question here too ( I asked already in Arch Linux forums).



SO I am trying to use my external monitor next to the laptop one on my fresh ArchLinux setup. It does not work and I do not know why.

I was following a guide on ArchWiki for using Bumblebee
ArchWiki Bumblebee MultiDisplay



I created the conf file according to that wiki, this did not work. The next part in that wiki I am not sure what to do, so I didnt try anything with that one yet.

  • I've had the same situation a while back (never resolved it actually). I use GNOME that may give you a clue, although I refused to configure the monitors and all that stuff "by hand" — unless for tweaking. I didn't try Bumblebee, just the "plain" nvidia drivers and the NVIDIA Optimus config/guide.
