I get the joke, but I’m getting tired of these very, very old memes being reposted ad-nauseam when they’re so outdated. I did not have to open the xorg.conf file for at least a decade, probably more. It was a very annoying thing to do, yes, but hasn’t been an issue for a lot of install in forever.
There’s a resurgence of these “but it’s very weird/difficult/annoying” outdated memes these last few weeks on a lot of websites, and at this point I’m wondering if it’s just people discovering them or just some people bashing linux systems based on their experience from the last century.
I have that on a key combo, together with --gamma for day/evening colors. But it is reset after display sleep. Funnily enough, even xorg.conf is ignored 50% of the times then.

I did xorg.conf from the example on Arch wiki and it worked. Then i did it the correct way from the official documentation and it didn’t.
I did not touch an xorg.conf file in forever and it just works out of the box, whether I’m running debian, kubuntu, or mint, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My screen has graphical glitches on default 59.99 Htz, not on other frequencies. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
xrandr --rate 60. No need to mess withxorg.conf. And you put that on a start script to never have to type it again.I have that on a key combo, together with

I broke xorg.conf when i installed Linux Mint about a year ago, but i forgot what for. Ironically i never had issues with an Arch based distro.
