Howdy, |

A while back during my routine upgrades, I got a update to |
4 |
nvidia-drivers. I went from nvidia-drivers-470.129.06 to |
5 |
nvidia-drivers-470.141.03. Since then, I'm having trouble getting |
6 |
screen 2 to stay on. When I turn the TV on, it disables screen 2 which |
7 |
makes TV 2 not have a signal. I enable screen 2 again but it disables |
8 |
again when the TV powers back up and tries to connect. After I do this |
9 |
a few times, it eventually accepts it and stays on. I wanted to go back |
10 |
to old 129 driver version but it is no longer in the tree and when I |
11 |
found a link to the ebuild on packages.gentoo.org, it doesn't like the |
12 |
ebuild for some reason. It won't let me make a manifest for it. Also, |
13 |
this happens when I turn my TVs off and lock my screen so I can go to my |
14 |
weekly Doctor visit and grocery shopping trip. When I come back and cut |
15 |
everything on, this is when the trouble starts. Once I get it running, |
16 |
it runs all week without any problems at all as long as the TVs stay |
17 |
on. Also, I have 2 TVs. Video card goes to a splitter which then goes |
18 |
to both TVs. |
19 |
|
20 |
I don't mind putting the old version in a local overlay and running it |
21 |
but if that can't happen, does anyone know of a way to force nvidia to |
22 |
work? I'm open to either option. This is my xorg.conf file: |
23 |
|
24 |
|
25 |
root@fireball / # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
26 |
# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings |

I never changed that when I added the second screen for my TV. Maybe I |
142 |
need to update the config file instead of letting the GUI thing do it. |
143 |
I dunno. I just need a fix but not real sure where to go next. Maybe |
144 |
I'm overlooking something simple. |
145 |
|
146 |
By the way, I use the Nvidia GUI thingy to change settings and enable |
147 |
screen 2. Maybe there is a better way?? In case it matters, I use KDE. |
