Three monitors support of Garuda

Do you mean the resolution size of the monitors are too big and not provisioned by Garuda team?

No, I mean the detected physical size (size: 160x90mm) is too small, and I suspect it could be something with the EDID information returned by the monitor to the OS (of course, my theory may well be wrong).
If decode-edid returns the correct size, it means I’m wrong.

“gaps betwen displays are not supported. make sure all displays are touching”

just means that, in a multi-monitor configuration they should all be contiguous, where one monitor ends the next pixel is on the neighboring other monitor without space in between, like

+----+--------+
| M1 |   M2   |   # OK
+----+--------+

+----+  +--------+
| M1 |  |   M2   |   # NOT OK
+----+  +--------+

I don’t know if this is Xorg limitation, as I said I use Wayland, and I can leave a gap between my monitors without problem (it’s useful for CAD and games, to restrict the mouse on one screen, but I digressed).

edit: Reading again your last sentence (“When I set the resolution to max”), I also suspect the error message is imprecise, and likely the two overlap rather than have a gap between.
Let’s say I have the “OK” setup above, and now I increase M1 resolution, I’d also have to move M2 to the right.
