Am running MX 19

[Huckleberry Finn]

Please, particularly "Quick System Info" from Menu (rather than inxi) .

Even code tags are ready with that. Just start it then directly right-click paste in your post :)

Edit: Thank you, that's it .

If you like, you can do one of these:

Try MX AHS (Advanced Harware Support) version : http://it.mxrepo.com/Downloads/Final/MX-19.4/

Or turn it into AHS : Install 5.10 kernel from Test Repo in "MX Package Installer", also enable Ahs repo from last tab, update & upgrade..

Or, just install 5.10 and try first ...

[tomtom11]

Thanks, I'll try and report

[Eadwine Rose]

Just a silly question.. are you trying to connect one monitor to the Intel and the other to the Nvidia? Or both to the same card?

[tomtom11]

one monitor for each card

[tomtom11]

I just install kernel 5.10 ...
same results,
one more thing when the OS starts loading before the login screen I see picture in both monitors when I do login monitor 1 (intel card) turning black and after a few seconds is turn off completely

[Huckleberry Finn]

Meanwhile, have you tried ARandR from Menu ?

[tomtom11]

Yes,only 1 monitor display HDMI -0

[Huckleberry Finn]

Is there such a file ? /etc/X11/xorg.conf

(if yes, can you post and also rename it to .conf.old and try after a reboot ? )

[tomtom11]

No , there is xorg.conf.in file
