you're better off just driving both displays with one GPU. this is what I had originally hoped for, I just happened to have an additional monitor laying around but it was VGA only, with my main GPU being a 1070, having no form of analog output and the price of a converter being that of a cheap disp...

with my main GPU being a 1070, having no form of analog output Does it not have a DVI-I port? If it has a DVI plug, and the wide flat pin has four smaller pins around it, then any $3 DVI to VGA adapter will work (the GPU should have come with one). But I guess it might not have that type of port. I...

check the launcher script in my signature. there might be something useful in there for nvidia display config. possibly dumb question, but I just wanna make sure I'm not screwing it up, how do I use it? i have separate factorio installs in ~/factorio/<name> where <name> is something like "spac...

ait, I'll be busy with work for the next few days, but when I get a chance I'll see about switching cause I do have one in mind (been even kinda looking for an excuse to switch to KDE anyways thanks to the development of an extension to make wallpaper engine compatible with it so a good of time as a...

sorry for the late reply.

I Have tried it with Minecraft, which does report the correct GPU, but it's getting ~20FPS when I know it should be getting over 60 (no shaders) I can try some additional games too if need be.

from what I can find, cinnamon version is 5.2.7+una, which is listed as the latest

EDIT: if the issue is cinnamon though, I can switch DE's but it's understandably a bit less than ideal

hello, thank you for the reply! yes, I'm trying to use the 1070 on the 1080P display, that is all correct. I have disabled vsync in the game settings. it had made no difference. same story for windowed mode, no change. Xinerama is what has the toggle box in the Nvidia X server settings. running my d...

also Fury, the Linux control panel looks entirely different. IK how to do that on windows, but I cannot find any equivalent setting on the Linux version of the control panel

Can you provide a copy of your factorio-current.log? It should give us some more information about what's going on here. here you go! dual monitors with Xinerama is enabled. for extra info. the first launch gives me a completely black screen that requires me to CTRL+ALT+function key into another TT...

Isn’t there a way in the nVidia CP to force (on a per app basis, even) which GPU it uses? I’m not at my computer so can’t verify.

there may be, but I've yet to figure out how to do it. will give another look when able.

EDIT: Maybe there is a way, but I cannot figure it out

As the title says, I installed a 2nd GPU (NOT identical to my primary GPU) to drive a secondary display in my system. the game worked just fine on my main GPU before installing the 2nd GPU, but after putting in the 2nd GPU the game performed very poorly, and checking Nvidia settings showed that the ...

Well thank you everyone for your input! I will keep the advice in mind, and hopefully my 2nd playthrough will go smoothly! (With plans for a third already heh) I will note I did see "think of launching your first rocket as just the start" which I may eventually do, but a question on this w...

keep in mind that pollution triggers attacks, terrain and trees slowly absorb pollution, you will most likely go faster the 2nd game, and possibly at a higher scale, which will cause more pollution. You can destroy cliffs with cliffs explosive. Oil cracking receipes combined with advanced oil proce...

To a large extent there's obviously no right or wrong way to play, but from a quick look at your save, playing with default map settings: I think the point you already made: make use of your experience to think ahead and plan space accordingly. Flamethrower turrets are amazing for defence, generall...

Hello all! So I have just launched my first rocket to space at the end of my first ever (mostly blind) playthrough of the game! I'm curious if anyone here is able to provide me tips/tricks to keep in mind for my 2nd playthrough. What I already have in mind is more "decentralizing" to make ...
