No virtual scree name found

[shirobachi]

Hey,

When I try to enable virtual screen (VS) I got info that no virtual screen name found: https://i.imgur.com/29t9g7e.png

Below some output what might help to help me:
xrandr --verbose: https://termbin.com/g8gb3
lspci: https://termbin.com/uwr0
cat ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log: https://termbin.com/4xpf
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log:https://termbin.com/lyck
lscpu: https://termbin.com/tyy5

I tried the following solutions, but no luck:

• VIRTUAL1 option not available (UBUNTU 17.10, X.org) #16 (comment)

Thanks in advance for help!

Having the same problem, on arch. Let me know if you figure it out!

No sorry man, I just bought external screen for UBS c, and it works just fine. Also, happy to see answer since three monitors would be better that two.

Good luck :)

Ah okay, thanks for the response man :), have a nice day

same in arch

[tpchuckles]

same issue here.

is there some other prerequisite step? (other similar tools require the user to manually set up their own virtual display for xrandr to use). I came here hoping to find a utility which could do it for me...
