Maybe just dump the xorg.conf? If you use a desktop environment then it
likely has a GUI tool to set the monitors up. Or use xrandr?
I attach a report from inxi -Gay showing incorrect DP-0 monitor resolution plus
my xorg.conf and parts of Xorg.0.conf
When I move to run level 5 in a fresh system start, the result is not always the
same. Sometimes DP-0 (on the right) is receiving signal for a short time.
After 15-30 minutes DP-2 (on the left) goes dark and I have to reboot. Sometimes
one or the other monitor will change to 900x1600 on its own without any user
action.

If you use a desktop environment then it likely has a GUI tool to set the monitors up. Or use xrandr? For me I don't need any setup, just luck I guess. Two displays connected to HDMI-1 and DP-1, the right thing happens automagically. Video card is a newish RTX3070Ti with the Nvidia driver.

I'm not an expert but shouldn't be there only one screen with 2 monitors configured? -- FCD6 3719 0FFB F1BF 38EA 4727 5348 5F1F DCFE BCB0
Debian 11, Nvidia Quadro P400, 2xiiyama 2560x1440, nvidia driver
Debian 11, Nvidia Quadro P400 card, 2xiiyama 2560x1440 monitors, and the nvidia
driver.
I am trying to get 2 iiyama monitors rotated to portrait mode to show a single
2880x2560 screen, but so far only the left monitor lights up with a 1440x2560
screen.
The Quadro P400 has 3 mini-DisplayPort connectors numbered 1, 2 and 3 starting
from the motherboard.
,---,
DP-4 3 |
Right monitor DP-0 2 Quadro P400 |
Left monitor DP-2 1 |
MMM Motherboard
xrandr reports that these ports are seen as 1 -> DP-2, 2 -> DP-0, 3 -> DP-4.
I connect mini-DisplayPort 1 (DP-2) to the left side monitor and
mini-DisplayPort 2 (DP-0) to the right monitor. There is nothing connected to
port 3. I used nvidia-select to try to set up the screen. This produces a file
/etc/X11/xorg.conf in which I have
screen 0:
Option"metamodes" "DP-2: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 {rotation=left}"
screen 1:
Option"metamodes" "DP-0: nvidia-auto-select +1440+0 {rotation=left,
AllowGSYNC=Off}"
This uses only the left monitor. The right is not even powered on.
Before I plunge into the details, does anyone have a working xorg.conf for such
a setup? I would prefer to start with something that works rather than describe
in detail something that doesn't work.
