X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) about autorandr

• Does the same command work if you do not specify --transform, i.e. xrandr --output DisplayPort-1-3 --off --output eDP-1-0 --gamma 1.0:1.0:1.0 --mode 1920x1080 --panning 0x0 --pos 0x0 --primary --rate 60.05 --reflect normal --rotate normal?
• Do transformations work in principle with eDP-1-0, i.e. can you run e.g. xrandr --output eDP-1-0 --scale .8? If this works, does the first command succeed if reissued afterwards?

Hi @phillipberndt
Without transform parameter is working (it does not give any error msg)
xrandr --output eDP-1-0 --scale .8 returns with xrandr: failed to parse '.8' as a scaling factor

[phillipberndt]

Oh, sure, sorry: Try 0.8x0.8.

It seems like xrandr or anything is restarting. (Screen goes black and returns on docked monitor)

xrandr --output eDP-1-0 --scale 0.8x0.8

Ok, so --transform isn't working at all for you. I've made a commit that should skip the option unless it is necessary, please check if it fixes this issue for you!

It fixes the issue. No error message anymore. Thank you, I close this issue.
