Hello,
OpenMandrivaLx.rolling-snapshot.20250225.3700-plasma6x11.x86_64.iso
Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…):
KDE
Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):
I have set up dual monitors in KDE fine but it won’t reboot with them both on. Any ideas. I did do a search and didn’t find anything.
Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):
Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core Processor
Just a heads-up, SLI is not enabled by default, and the gains are minimal. Try it with just one card. Save the other as a spare. I would also recommend installing the open driver since nvidia now recommends that by default. You can do that with the steps here:
Since the availability of the Open Source Linux kernel driver for nvidia, we have been interested in how it would work in OMLx, but have not had compatible cards to test it with. Based on recent guidance from the company, they will be suggesting this Open driver be the default:
They did not include the compatible cards in this article, but the list is here:
We package two versions of the proprietary and open drivers, one built with the installed kernel, and one with dkms. The latter is rec…
I’m not sure why it shows 2 cards when I only have 1. I will try installing the open driver.
Also here is the system info output from my OpenMandriva instillation. The other one was from my Nobara install:
Operating System: OpenMandriva Lx 25.02
I’ll shut off the AMD one in the BIOS.

Which GPU and which driver are you using. I’ve never been able to get dual monitors with noveau .
The 3060. I’m using the driver provided in the Welcome program. I was thinking if switching to the built in AMD on board video and seeing if that made a difference.

so remove those and try installing the drivers this way:
’ sudo dnf in nvidia nvidia-kmod-open-desktop nvidia-settings ’
