  The issue

  On clear, just installed Hyprland there were no issues. After I installed these dotfiles, the second monitor started flickering. Sometimes, the image on it is half-heighted in the bottom half of the monitor. Image appears for 0.5 seconds, then disappears for 1–2 seconds. If I don't move the mouse, the image stays on screen, but if I drag the mouse, image disappears. ~/.config/hypr/hyprland/general.conf:

  monitor=eDP-1,    3200x2000@120,   0x0, 1.6
  monitor=HDMI-A-1, 1920x1080@74.97, 2000x0, 1

  Second monitor is HDMI-A-1

1. It's recommended to put your custom config in ~/.config/hypr/custom/general.conf, because the install.sh will overwrite ~/.config/hypr/hyprland when running.

2. This repo does not contain anything for GPU so it will be really weird if it is the cause.

1. Of course.
2. It was needed to disable vrr, now all works fine.
