Dual Screen - NVIDIA

[LornMalvo]

I installed Manjaro XFCE on my laptop. The installation is going well, no worries there. On the other hand I am having a problem to activate the dual-screen, I wanted to install the NVIDIA drivers and follow this tutorial: [HowTo] Set up PRIME (output offload) with NVIDIA proprietary driver

However after following everything and restarting, the screen remains black.

Do you have a solution to correctly install the right nvidia driver and configure the dual screen in HDMI? I have a GTX 1660 Ti.

Thanks in advance to those who will help me, I've been struggling since yesterday.

I’m new to Linux and Manjaro too ... I might be wrong, but apparently only the Linux-video drivers support dual screen.

Could you give us a bit more info about your system by posting the output of inxi -Fxxxza --no-host?

also i hope you have seen the message at the top of the Howto, as your GPU is supported by the 440xx driver series.

@jonathon

440xx update: If you have something which supports driver series 440xx then you should switch to video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-440xx-prime and ignore this guide (unless you want to use only the dGPU). Specify using the dGPU with e.g. prime-run glxinfo .

It's all good.

I reinstalled Manjaro once after i got a black screen, i reinstalled with mhwd the intel-nvidia-440x driver, i followed the tutorial for the dual screen once again and it works, i do not hadn't done things in the right order.

Thank you for your answers.
