Question: how to setup multiple monitors on manjaro wayland with nvidia graphics card
Setting up multiple monitors with NVIDIA on Manjaro using KDE Plasma and Wayland can be challenging, but it's possible with some configuration. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set up your multi-monitor environment:
### Prerequisites
1. **Ensure NVIDIA Drivers are Installed**:
- Open a terminal and install the NVIDIA drivers. For newer GPUs (Turing and newer), use `nvidia-open`, and for older GPUs (Maxwell through Ada Lovelace), use `nvidia`:
```sh
sudo pacman -S nvidia
```
2. **Enable Wayland in KDE Plasma**:
- Ensure that Wayland is enabled in your KDE Plasma session. You can do this by logging out, clicking on the gear icon next to your username on the login screen, and selecting "Plasma (Wayland)".
### Configuration Steps
1. **Install NVIDIA Settings**:
- Install the NVIDIA settings tool to manage your displays:
```sh
sudo pacman -S nvidia-settings
```
2. **Configure Monitors Using NVIDIA Settings**:
- Open the NVIDIA X Server Settings:
```sh
nvidia-settings
```
- Navigate to the "X Server Display Configuration" section.
- Detect and configure your monitors. Set the resolution, position, and rotation for each monitor.
- Apply the settings and save the configuration to an X configuration file (e.g., `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf`).
3. **Create or Edit X Configuration File**:
- If you need to manually create or edit the X configuration file, you can use the following example as a starting point:
