I JUST INSTALED cashy os as my first linux and i already cant see anything properly its all glitchy and blurry even at installation phase it looks like really horrible camera i think it might fix if i can change my resolution to 4096*2160 because m stuck on 1080 but every time i selected any other …

This warning occurs because you are running X11-based commands (like xrandr or xinput) while using a Wayland compositor, which only simulates X11 via Xwayland. These tools cannot directly change the resolution or input settings of your Wayland display server. [image] Dennis_Chauhan_DC: warning …

[image] Dennis_Chauhan_DC: 4096*2160 3840x2160 is standard 4k resolution. What is the native resolution of your monitor? Or what model is it? I’m certainly not a monitor expert, but 4096x2160 seems like an unusual resolution. Pro video production setup or something?

Yea i have a resolution above 3840x2160 And it works at 60hz in windows and is very smooth. I have a random samsung smart tv i don’t know the model. 50 something inch And right now i have tried 3 more distros and all of them have this issue They show the option but it’s only 30 and below I am…

it’s probably an issue with your cable or the data reported by the display.

I use hdmi I saw some comments about hdmi not working properly at a certain threshold of hz But i just want my 60hz lol.

So xrand stuff doesn’t work ok. Got it. I did tried the drivers from nvidia page But the file didn’t run it required other things and still didn’t run That’s why I just used arch nvidia code line Yea i am trying different distro to hopefully find a one that just display properly And leave windo…

Seems like you are hitting that weird bug with Nvidia cards when connecting to a TV with HDMI when using a Wayland session. You are not alone in not seeing 60Hz. But the resolution issue is a little different. The fix is to either 1) use an x11 session with KDE (I assume you are using KDE) or 2) go…

Hey, I also run a 4k Tv, mines a Tcl 75 with no problems at all. I`ve always found its best to experiment, I personally like KDE as its got HDR. Ive got an AMD 9060 right now but was running with a RTX 3060ti and both ran just fine in various flavours of Linux

Target refresh rate on big screen not available under Wayland Issues & Assistance

SOLVED! So in the mind set of trying to change the EDID info, I went into my TV to turn off HDR* (which I didn’t even know it had until I looked it up), but it seems Roku disabled the ability to toggle that on and off even in the secret menu where the option used to reside. Ok. But I looked at the hdmi input on the TV that the computer sends to, and it was set to “Auto”, as opposed to “Standard” (HDMI 2.0 basically) and “Compatibility” (HDMI 1.4 basically). I switched it to standard, and boo…

Wayland Refresh Rate Capped at 50Hz (Half Rate) on 100Hz Monitor - Dell 7567 (Works fine on X11/Windows) Issues & Assistance

Hi everyone, I’ve been using CachyOS with KDE on my Dell 7567 (i5-7300HQ / GTX 1050) for almost a year now without any issues. However, I recently bought a 100Hz monitor and I’m running into some trouble. The Issue: Although the system settings correctly identify the 100Hz refresh rate, the actual output is consistently capped at 50Hz. Vsync locks games exactly at 50 FPS and TestUFO also reports a steady 50Hz. Troubleshooting so far: This is happening on a fresh installation of CachyOS and …
