Hello Garuda users.
I just installed Garuda, was able to get it working with the corect scaling on the intel graphics card. However when I switched to the Nvidia 2060 Super I have in the system it caused the scaling to make it so I cant see all the task bar under any of the KDE desktops. I looked under the forums last night and tried the fixed to change the dpi that did not work. I tried to reinstall the OS with the nvidia card plugged in with the same result.
When looking at the sddm.conf there is only 2 lines, and it shows that I do not have the other files listed in other posts. Any help would be thankful.
