When I use krandr to set my resolution to 1920x1080 it shows two of the same refresh rates (60hz) like this:
When I choose the first 60hz option the picture doesn't fill my monitor (large black bars on the side)
But the second option works fine.
My problem is when I want to manually set the resolution with xrandr it defaults to the first 60hz option and I have no idea how can I get xrandr to use the second 60hz option(If that makes sense, also why are the same refresh rates producing different outputs?)
Here is what 'xrandr -q --verbose' reports (0x44 is the 1920x1080 option that actually works properly)
Code:
xrandr -q --verbose
