Hi,
I own an MSI nvidia optimus gaming laptop and am trying to launch a KDE Wayland session in which my secondary monitor is detected. After some research a reason for why the hdmi connected monitor is not detected could be, that nvidia_drm.modeset=1 is not enabled as a kernel parameter. Trying to do so ends in my system getting stuck during the boot process. Only solution is removing the entry from grub or a modprobe config file (I tried both ways to get the kernel parameter running) by chrooting from a live system.
What could be the issue?
nvidia and wayland isn’t compatible. whatever you do but you’ll have to use x11 with nvidia.
also post the mandatory
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
output and use the preformatted text option to paste it inside it.

Well, that’s kind of an unsubstantial killer phrase.
