saturday is factorio night! gotta improve oil processing and fix some train deadlocks (assuming all 4 of us log on, a herculean feat)

nothing in between the computer and monitor - it's just plugged straight in. my current guess is that some step of pacman's install/update process changes something that also gets changed by something else (DE, config file, idk) after the boot.
could you elaborate?
i've been just dealing with this problem for an embarrassing amount of time now, and have gone through several version updates of the nvidia drivers with this problem persisting. i've also tried reinstalling the nvidia drivers with no change.
no unfortunately god's intended resolution is just slippin right into my arch install uninvited
that's worth checking - i don't have a spare DP cable on hand to test, but you may be onto something.
previously, i tried unplugging and replugging the cable on the PC end, as well as trying other ports, to no avail.
just now, i tried replugging the end plugged into the monitor a few times and was able to reproduce the resolution issue a single time. this honestly just confuses me more though, because why would it happen only one time out of several cycles doing the exact same thing?
i'm gonna get another cable just to be sure but that wont be for a few days at least.
while i appreciate the effort, this has no effect on my issue. also maybe worth noting, i am using grub but not nomodeset. i toggled it on just to see if it would do anything but the problem persists.
if you look at my xrandr output on the first boot, the main problem is that it cannot see any other mode except 640x480 and running xrandr --output DP-0 --mode 1920x1080
fails. i cannot change it using plasma's display settings gui or xrandr in any way - the only way i know how to get access to the other resolution/rate settings of that monitor is by rebooting.
i like them and the texture doesn't bother me at all. i made them using some leftover yarn i had sitting, if i were to do a little more planning i might pick a different yarn since these are pretty fuzzy lol.
honestly i would probably prefer to not use any arm covers and stick with the original material on the chair, but it is far more comfortable than this:
woah there pal you got a license for that thing
all they need to do is stop being so scary and we can be chillin
fuck yeah
fluids desperately needed some improvement and it looks like this will make things much nicer
hey its me the guy you predicted would tell you the thing you said i would tell you
the reason people say neofetch is useless is because the information it gives you is not very detailed when compared to something like inxi for example
in case anyone is reading this looking for a solution the cable was not the culprit
