Hi everyone,

I wanted to go back to Zorin OS today but i forgot why i left it:
I have to screens, one 165Hz and the other is on 60Hz.
When i only use the 165Hz screen, everything is fine.
But when i use both screen, everything is stuck at 60Hz.

Can i do something about it ? I really want to use Zorin daily...

Are You having a Nvidia Card?
Is fractional Scaling active?

Is the System running in Wayland or Xorg? To check that, go to Settings>About and look if there stands Wayland or X11. If there stands Wayland, You could try it with switching to X11/Xorg.

To do that, go to the Login Screen (not the lock Screen). simply reboot for that. On the Login Screen click on Your Profile so that the Password Field appears. It has to be appeared. when it is appered, You should see in the bottom right conrer a Gear Icon. Click on it and choose the Option ''Zorin Desktop on Xorg'' and then log in and test if it works.

  • I have a Nvidia card (3080Ti)

  • the fractional scaling is not active (enabling it does nothing)

  • I'm on X11

Switching to Wayland helps ... interesting. But okay, when it works now, good.
