After installing Ubuntu 20.04 on my computer that has 2 monitors connected to the first GPU (Nvidia RX 2070 Super) and 2 monitors connected to the second GPU (Nvidia RX 2070 Super), there are 2 problems when using it with the GNOME desktop environment:

  1. 2 of the monitors has no display signal when connected to the 2nd GPU, but has display signal when re-connected to the first GPU. nvidia-driver-440 is used.

  2. On updating to nvida-driver-450, the same problem persists. In addition, everything seems to be zoomed in, making application windows appear off screen when launched. Downgrading back to nvidia-driver-440 solves this "zoomed in" issue.

NVIDIA X Server Settings show that 4 monitors are detected, but 2 of them (shared orange) are disabled and require a new X screen (X screen 1) to be created. Somehow, there is no option to set them to X screen 0.

Any idea how we can fix this problem? Thank you
