VBIOS
One interesting part here: [ 7.578995] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: disp: 0x00006465[0]: INIT_GENERIC_CONDITON: unknown 0x07 [ 8.057232] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: disp: outp 01:0006:0f84: link rate unsupported by sink which happens every few seconds. Probably related. Created attachment 134961 [details]
decoded edids
Ran the EDIDs through the latest edid-decode.

Verbose dmesg output: Booting with only LG Ultrawide
On this run, I only had the LG Ultrawide monitor physically connected to the machine. After the bootloader and a few (5-10) early console output lines, I lost video signal to the monitor.

Verbose dmesg output: Booting only with Samsung 4K
In this test, I booted with only the Samsung 4K monitor attached. There was no flickering or artifacting in tty and no visible problems in sway.
I wont recommend using/keeping the GP106 (GTX 1060). It cant ever run with free software: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/04/15/nvidia_gtx_900_linux_driver_roadbloack/ https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-XDC2017 https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-XDC2016-NVIDIA Sell this crappy GP102 card away and go away from nvidia. Nvidia died with the 780ti card. Its the last end-user card that can be used normaly. Everything else is in some countries even a legal problem. Because the manufacturer (nvidia) blocks the users from beeing able to boot the software they want on THEIR hardware - happyly illegal in some countries. Hopefully some layer would sue the heck out of nvidia so that they would have to release the private signing key or close their doors. Blocking the freedom of the users on such way should not be accepted by anyone. (In reply to caguduzexi from comment #9) > I wont recommend using/keeping the GP106 (GTX 1060).
