I'm running Plasma X11. Xrandr let me add a custom res/refresh setting it just didn't actually do the thing. I thought it did cause the refresh went up but I think it jsut put me on 1080p instead? Should prolly try following the guide from the beginning again, maybe I just had a typo or skipped step I missed.
wanna share the guide? Also, is there a reason you're using xrandr and not the Plasma system settings app?

Most "user error" caveat possible here, I stopped after step 5 and before step 6 cause it seemed to just put me back into 1080p at 120hz when I tried to go from 2160 30hz to 60hz.
Also I tried using the display config but the native res at 60hz isn't available (max 30) and no 1440p is available double checks that display config in system setting sis the same as the shortcut in right click desktop Yeah I tried the right thing, just doesn't have the option. Windows 10 and 11 do.
Edit: Live disk of Nobura has the res setting I want, just installing that
