yeah it works flawlessly on Wayland, that wasn’t what I was saying. I’m saying on x11 it doesn’t work for gaming because of the setup. Say I want to use I3 or Herbstfluftwm. If I open a game and ONLY stay on that game it’s fine. but if I navigate away from it to look at a web browser or check discord and then toggle back to the game it results in a black screen or simply shows the desktop and the game is unresponsive. And from what I was able to find online the consensus seems to be it’s because x11 doesn’t play well with integrated and discrete dual GPUs.
Oh, my bad. Misread it the other way around. Disregard the comment then. That said. I disagree with the other commenter. Such a combination of GPUs is not rare at all. It was even recommended frequently to PC builders about 5+ years ago.
