Black screens with 2 monitors

Hi,
I was having problems with Steam—it would briefly appear in the taskbar, then disappear again (an endless cycle). I had read that switching to Xorg might help. That’s why I made the switch. Then this error occurred as well:: Software Updater error . I was eventually able to fix the problem somehow.
Sorry for being so vague, but I've switched back and forth so many times between Xorg and the desktop, as well as between Steam Flatpak and SteamOS, that I've lost track of what worked where, when, and how…

I still had those two monitors left over from my old Windows desktop.
