Third screen disabled and can't enable it

Hi !
I have 3 screens but the third connected in HDMI have a problem : It stays "disabled" 
Even when I check "Use this display", it says disabled so I can't use it.

Do you have an idea from where this problem could come ?

here is a screnshot of the display window : https://i.imgur.com/Sj4TvCz.png

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

What version of xfce4-settings are you running?

xfsettingsd --version

And what is the output of:

xrandr

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

Hi !
Thanks for the help, I just managed to resolve the issue by deleting the display.xml file in .config/xfce4

Have a good day

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

The settings are showing that the HDMI connection is not active. In your first post, you mentioned that checking "Use this display" didn't help. Is that box currently unchecked?

Does the following command help to re-enable it:

xfconf-query -c displays -p /Default/HDMI-1/Active -s true

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

Odd. Try this. In a terminal window run:

xfconf-query -c displays -m

...then check and uncheck the box. Does anything appear on the terminal window?

Also, can you post back the results of:

ls -l ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

Even xrandr shows the monitor disabled.

Does a command like this make a difference:

xrandr --output eDP-1 --auto --output DP-1 --auto --right-of eDP-1 --output HDMI-1 --auto --right-of DP-1

Post back the results of:

xfconf-query -c displays -lv

...and:

xrandr

...after running that command.

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

xrandr: Configure crtc 2 failed

If xrandr isn't working, then xfce4-settingsd won't be able to enable the monitor either

Try running that same command but with verbose added:

xrandr --verbose --output eDP-1 --auto --output DP-1 --auto --right-of eDP-1 --output HDMI-1 --auto --right-of DP-1

...and also check your Xorg.log file for entries when you try this.

Another thing, restart your computer. Before logging in, delete the displays.xml file then log in. If all 3 monitors work again, post back again the results of:

xrandr

What video card do you have? How are the monitors connected to your system?

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

Are you using the intel drive or the modsetting driver?
Any custom EDIDs or monitor resolutions?

[ 40992.781] (EE) modeset(0): failed to set mode: Invalid argument

I think if you get this xrandr issue resolved then Xfce's display manager will work. If this is a recent issue, perhaps something changing in xorg that introduced a bug.

If you plug in just the HDMI monitor, does the display work?

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

I don't even know if I use the intel drive or the modsetting driver :s
If I plug in the just the HDMI monitor the display does'nt work no...

Edit: The problems is resolved, I used arandr. here is the config :

xrandr --output HDMI-1 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output DP-1 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 3840x0 --rotate normal --output eDP-1 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 1920x0 --rotate normal

Re: Third screen disabled and can't enable it

This thread was useful, but the last comment was a bit confusing. You can run arandr and somehow that is able to enable a disabled monitor that can't be enabled through the default display configuration tool. You can then generate xrandr config options within arandr. And just to make things even more confusing, I used arandr to get things configured the way I needed it and then autorandr to save it as a profile that can be easily loaded. Hopefully this helps somebody that finds this thread.
