[nimble cairn]

Top one?

Not the top one for sure

It still has the bad resolution

[stable rampart]

yes

[nimble cairn]

Are you sure?

What next?

@stable rampart ?

[stable rampart]

test the resolution

[nimble cairn]

Wdym

I just said it's still bad

[stable rampart]

@nimble cairn resize that, and change the resolution

[nimble cairn]

Cant

[nimble cairn]

The box is gray I can't change the value

[stable rampart]

pacman -S lxrandr

[nimble cairn]

How many pkgs am I going to need to install

[stable rampart]

we will remove them, once you get a good resolution

[nimble cairn]

Oh great 👍

Installed that

[stable rampart]

[nimble cairn]

Shiße

Also why the hell is everything Russian even tho the only thing that I set as in Russia was the time

And a second language

@stable rampart

It won't let me go higher

[stable rampart]

@nimble cairn check your monitor settings

[nimble cairn]

@stable rampart you mean these?

I don't think it sees the monitor correctly

[stable rampart]

the actual monitor, not that package

[nimble cairn]

Cuz the monitor is plugged into the graphics card and the drivers are fucked/wrong

[stable rampart]

@nimble cairn amd or nvidia?

[nimble cairn]

Nvidia graphics card

[stable rampart]

open source or prop?

[nimble cairn]

Wdym

Idk where do I check that

[nimble cairn]

?

[stable rampart]

pacman -Q | grep nvidia

[nimble cairn]

Two of them

That I chose when I installed steam

[stable rampart]

pacman -S nvidia

[nimble cairn]

I think I chose wrong and it's the fault of these fucks

[nimble cairn]

Reboot?

After installation

[stable rampart]

yes

[nimble cairn]

It's so satisfying to just type in reboot and see a wall of checks that all return green

YOOOO
