Re: Debian 12: need nvidia-settings to join 2 2560x1440 into a 2880x2560

[Hans <hans.ullrich@loop.de>]

Instead of using nvidia-settings, you could also create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf 
and edit the settings you need.

Yes, xorg.conf ois no more needed, as the driver itself checks the settings, 
but in some cases xorg.conf might help.

I allow myself to attache mine here from the old days, it is for nvidia and it 
might be helpfull. It is small, so it does not stress the servers too much.
