Hello all. I have been using Garuda very Successfully for a couple of years now, but now I have encountered a very strange problem. I’ve got two monitors hooked up to my computer. The primary one is an Asus PQ 27 connected via DisplayPort to my graphics card. The secondary one is connected via the HDMI port and it’s a Samsung screen.

No, for some reason I have lost the output on the primary screen, well the secondary screen is functioning as normal, and and has taken the place of the primary screen as far as I can tell from xrandr.

When I start a system I can see the login screen and the splash screen on the display port screen but then the desktop completely fails to load Their end appears on the HDMI screen instead.
What’s More, it only seems to affect one particular user. I tried logging in on another user, and that one seems to work just as intended. This leads me to believe it’s probably some sort of software issue and that it should be correctable.

If possible I would like some suggestions on what files to look at and such to potentially solve the problem.
