Hello everyone!

I’m using a 4k 48" TV as a monitor, and want to scale the screen down to 3440x1440 / 21:9 with black bars on the top and bottom. I’ve managed to do this with the AMD Adrenaline software on my Windows partition, but when I tried to create a custom resolution on my EndeavourOS partition with xrandr, the screen just goes black whenever I apply it.

Has anyone here been succesful doing this, or have any tips? Thanks!

    Well the method looks correct, but xrandr doesn’t support full wayland, AFAIK. It’s really meant for X11.

    I haven’t looked into this myself, but perhaps there’s a newer tool that can get the job done?

      Thanks, I’ll try and see if I can find some alternative way to get it working! Worst case scenario I might just get a new C2 with built in 21:9 support.
