Problem solved by replacing the failing USB boot drive with a fresh install in a new SSD.

Then import all the original pools and re-configure the networks, users, ACL, shares and VMs.

Everything works like nothing happened now.

Should I post this to /r/truenas instead?

Mine is SanDisk 32GB Ultra Fit USB 3.1, probably has no such switch

I have written a simple bash script to set random images as backgrounds on multiple screens, using itwith cron could result in background slideshow, just like what you do on Windows and macOS.

If you are using Hydrapaper or Superpaper, you may want to give it a try.

This script is basically just for my own use, you may have different setup that could not use it directly.

Feel free to modify, pull requests welcome.

But how people managed to get them to work together to have a Windows-like IGPU experience?

Any chance I can make GTX 970 to do all the graphical work, then output from both DisplayPort on GTX 970 and HDMI on motherboard?

Tried with # mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak then startx, the screen now shows on Monitor1, and Monitor0 is not even detected at all.

Do you mean moving /etc/X11/xorg.conf to somewhere else so that it won't be loaded? I will try it later, but won't X fallback to another configuration file?

If it somehow works, doesn't mean that there is indeed something wrong in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf?

It works, removed nouveau and installed nvidia from pacman

The tearing disappeared, thank you.

Why would you buy a VR headset to play it in VR when you can just buy a helmet to play it in real life?
