Nvidia
Good luck. ## Installation
Arch: install the nvidia
package.
Configuration
Minimal xorg setup for only running on Nvidia GPU
This minimal configuration should get you started. Add this in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
in a file similar to
10-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf
Section "OutputClass"
Identifier "intel"
MatchDriver "i915"
Driver "modesetting"
EndSection
Section "OutputClass"
Identifier "nvidia"
MatchDriver "nvidia-drm"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
Option "PrimaryGPU" "yes"
ModulePath "/usr/lib/nvidia/xorg"
ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"

Scaling without overscan on PRIME displays
If you cannot use xrandr --scale
without leading to
over/underscan you need to adjust a kernel parameter:
create a file in /etc/modprobe.d
(for example called
nvidia-drm-nomodeset.conf
) with the following content.
options nvidia-drm modeset=1
and rebuild your kernel via
sudo mkinitcpio -P
After a reboot this should enable scaling for PRIME displays.
