Monitor resolution fix #6

Closed raminsamadi123 closed 1 year ago

raminsamadi123 commented 1 year ago

Hello I've replaced your old monitor configuration since it won't work on every monitor. Instead I put something that will automatically detect what you are using and switch to it dynamically.

I replaced this:

monitor=DP-1,2560x1440@240,0x0,1
monitor=DP-3,1920x1080@240,2560x0,1

To this which gives more compatibility & flexibility:

monitor=,preferred,auto,1

unfortunately for me this sets my monitors to 60hz, however I will change up my dotfiles so that I check for the hostname of my desktop rather than my laptop in the .tmpl file. This will allow anything without the host name "archlinux" to use these settings you have posted here, thank you.

I think I might have a solution for that as well @Selmer443 (from Hyperland wiki):

Recommended rule for quickly plugging in random monitors:

monitor=,preferred,auto,1

for a focus on refreshrate use this:

monitor=,highrr,auto,1

for a focus on resolution this:

monitor=,highres,auto,1
