Nvidia Driver Install Not Allowing Dual Monitors

Summary

I am working on getting Solus working for my Lenovo p300 with a Quadro 1000. I did a fresh install and had one monitor through HDMI, one through the Quadro. Everything seemed to be working. I installed the Nvidia drivers through DoFlicky and rebooted. Then only the monitor through the Quadro was visible. So I did some research and someone suggested rolling back and trying to install the drivers through the command line. So I did that, same result. Now I only have one monitor with Nvidia, two without Nvidia.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Fresh install of Solus with one monitor plugged in to the Quadro/Nvidia card, the other plugged into a non-Quadro/Nvidia HDMI port
  2. Update system
  3. Install Nvidia drivers through doflicky
  4. Reboot

Expected result

Both monitors to work as they do before the Nvidia drivers are installed

Actual result

Only the monitor plugged into the Quadro/Nvidia port is recognized
