I tried switching to Linux on my main PC (cause I’m bored and I have an extra SSD to waste). Like the video shows, I can’t seem to get my left vertical monitor to properly configure on this OS. It’s completely broken. I can’t interact with anything on main monitor once I apply the settings as shown in the video.

The only way it works is if I keep my left monitor in horizontal position.

Google didn’t help and apparently it seems to be a common problem. It’s on me for choosing a broken distro but I kinda like it otherwise. I’d rather find a fix the screen problem.

I’m using an Nvidia 3070.

    I tried Endeavour on i3 exclusively earlier and I was able to set up the monitor correctly by editing the config with vim. I think the problem was when I reinstalled it using xfce, the drivers I automatically got from

    nvidia-inst

    Didn’t work right so I had to find an alternative source. Now everything functions perfectly.
