These are the commands I executed DP-1 is my external monitor, and eDP-1 is my laptop one : xrandr --output DP-1 --scale 2x2 --mode x --fb x --pos x0 xrandr --output eDP-1 --scale 1x1 --pos 0x0 After running various other commands in an attempt to achieve what I'm after, I managed to get it working - though not in such a way that it's clear to see which of my steps did the job.

As an update to my script posted above, the magic line for putting the external monitor on the right, now working without mouse constraint, is: xrandr --output DP-1 --auto --scale 2x2 --pos x0 --fb x --right-of eDP-1 --rotate left --output eDP-1 --auto --scale 1x1 --pos 0x0 --primary I have found that if I have been playing with --panning which cancels the 2x2 scaling in my experience , a new xrandr command does not cancel the panning: I have to reboot.

It was a while ago now and my memory is not great, but I think that may have been the problem I had when I tried the monitor to the right. Have you tried the settings for it on the left? The easiest way to realize that is xrandr --fbmm x --output HDMI-0 --pos x0 --mode x --scale 1x1 --primary --output DVI-0 --pos 0x0 --mode x --scale 1. Hondo Hondo 11 1 1 bronze badge. It'd be really nice if you can explain the background and your problem more clearly.
I will try browsing the musca thread and see if anyone else has encountered the same issue. I got your message about needing help. Sadly, I don't use Arch Linux anymore or Musca. Thanks but I have since given up on using a dual monitor setup for musca. I use i3 solely which does what I want. Atom topic feed. Arch Linux. Index Rules Search Register Login.

I put the last command in a shell script I call via keyboard when switching display hardware and few seconds after login automatically. Setting the tracking area was crucial in my setup, too.
At the end, your solution didn't help me, but I found a solution by leaving the resolutions alone.
