Is this a dual graphics (Intel HD / nvidia) machine? If yes, it can be quite tricky to get all 3 displays working. If you are lucky then maybe everything works if you just select one of the cards in the bios, but that is not the case if its anything like my notebook where the digital output is physically connected to the Nvidia card, while the analog VGA is connected to the intel. The bumblebee article on the wiki might be what you will have to look into. However, it is slightly out of date in the tripple-head section: * patching the xf86-video-intel package with the virtual-crtc is no longer necessary, the needed functionality is now in the official package. * Instead of the screenclone tool, you can use /usr/bin/intel-virtual-output On Fri, Apr 4, 2014 at 11:26 AM, Mihamina Rakotomandimby <mihamina.rakotomandimby@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi all, > > I have a Dell Latitude E6430 shipped with this Nvidia device: > > 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108GLM [NVS 5200M] > (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) > Subsystem: Dell Device 1534 > Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 44 > Memory at f5000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] > Memory at e0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] > Memory at f0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M] > I/O ports at e000 [size=128] > Expansion ROM at f6000000 [disabled] [size=512K] > Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 3 > Capabilities: [68] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+ > Capabilities: [78] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 > Capabilities: [b4] Vendor Specific Information: Len=14 <?> > Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel > Capabilities: [128] Power Budgeting <?> > Capabilities: [600] Vendor Specific Information: ID=0001 Rev=1 > Len=024 <?> > Kernel driver in use: nouveau > > My Laptop has VGA and HDMI output, both are used inorder to get a triple > display system: on board screen + one on VGA, one on HDMI. > > Do you have special recommandation on which driver to install and any tip > relative to that hardware? > > Note: Currently using Fedora it works quite well, but I really want to give > a try to ARch and want to get my screens as soon as possible :-) > > Thanks for your help.
