xrandr multiple screens not working

Writer Matthew Martinez

Yesterday I updated Arch Linux (Kernel: 5.10.3-arch1-1) and now I have a strange issue with xrandr. The second monitor is not working. xrandr shows me that HDMI is connected and shows available resolutions. xrandr --listmonitors does detect it:

$ xrandr --listmonitors
Monitors: 1 0: +*eDP1 1920/340x1080/190+0+0 eDP1
$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
eDP1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 340mm x 190mm
1920x1080 59.98*+ 59.93
...
640x360 59.84 59.32 60.00
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-1-0 disconnected
DP-1-1 disconnected
DP-1-2 disconnected
DP-1-3 disconnected
HDMI-1-0 connected 1440x900 59.89 + 74.98 1920x1080 59.94 1280x720 59.94
...

With arandr I can find the screen on HDMI but when I try to activate it, it gives me this error:

XRandr failed:
Xrandr returned error code 1:b'
xrandr: Configure crtc 4 failed
X error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 21 (RRSetCrtcConfig) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 69 Current serial number in output stream 69

Output of xrandr --output HDMI-1-0 --auto:

xrandr: Configure crtc 4 failed
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 21 (RRSetCrtcConfig) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 68 Current serial number in output stream: 68

Can anyone help? Thank you so much

If it's useful, this is the output of xrandr --listproviders:

Providers: number : 2
Provider 0: id: 0x45 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 4 outputs: 2 associated providers: 1 name:Intel
Provider 1: id: 0x220 cap: 0x2, Sink Output crtcs: 4 outputs: 5 associated providers: 1 name:NVIDIA-G0
3 Reset to default
