Although I'm not sure I follow your instructions correctly. If I set something like this in xorg.conf or in /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/screen-resolution.conf then it seems to be ignored on X startup. Perhaps I have to include both what you wrote and equivalents of: xrandr --output eDP1 --auto xrandr --output HDMI1 --auto xrandr --output HDMI1 --right-of eDP1 also in a config file? Also, I'm confused by xrandr reporting only screen0. Previously, with nvidia, I had in xorg.conf screen0 and screen1 positioned to the right of screen0. Perhaps xrandr uses a different terminology to xorg.conf? Thank you Anton
