NVidia

NVidia is a vendor for graphics cards.

Setup NVidia GPU

Arch Linux

For NVidia GPUs to work install the nvidia and the nvidia-utils package. If you want to easily configure the monitors as described in a later section of this file you can also install nvidia-settings.

There is no initial setup in for of a xorg.conf in /etc/X11 needed (except for a multiple GPU/APU setup).

Change monitor configuration

After running sudo nvidia-setting can drag and drop the monitors to your liking. After that you have to save the configuration to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

Avoid screen tearing

To avoid screen tearing open up nvidia-settings and under X Server Display Configuration select your display. Then click on Advanced and select either Force Composition Timeline or Force Full Composition Timeline.
