[Solved] Nvidia Driver issues, UI scale, hdmi refuses to enable

To start with, I have in the past been using the open source nouveau drivers but decided to switch after they suddenly (not after an update) decided my laptop monitor was disconnected (Still worked prior to the drivers loading, and Nvidia proprietary drivers detects it). (This isn't the only reason I'm switching).

While using the Nvidia drivers, First thing I noticed is that some applications (such as i3bar, gtk2, electron based UIs, and others) had to large of a UI scale. Other applications (Such as Firefox, rofi, chromium) were behaving as expected. I set the lowered the font size for gtk2 and terminal applications by about 4-5 points to resolve this, but that doesn't help with electron based UIs (of note: It's not just a font size problem with these applications, icons and buttons are massive as well).

The other Issue I noticed (and why I didn't switch to proprietary drivers earlier) is that HDMI output isn't working (VGA output still does.)
nvidia-settings recognizes that there is a monitor attached to HDMI out (DP-1), but any attempt to enable it fails silently.

xrandr output doesn't show DP-1 at all:

Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
DP-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-3 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
   1920x1080     60.01*+  40.01
DP-4 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-5 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-6 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

Re: [Solved] Nvidia Driver issues, UI scale, hdmi refuses to enable

You got more problems
1.

[   912.503] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
...
[   912.506] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X
[   912.506] (EE) NVIDIA(0):     log file that the GLX module has been loaded in your X
[   912.506] (EE) NVIDIA(0):     server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module.  If
[   912.506] (EE) NVIDIA(0):     you continue to encounter problems, Please try
[   912.506] (EE) NVIDIA(0):     reinstalling the NVIDIA driver.

The reason is probably

[   912.460] (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"

Please post that file as well.
Do you have an /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf ?

2. "nvidia-drm.modset=1" is not a valid module parameter ("modeset", 2 'E's)

3. HDMI is very likely not in the xrandr output because of

[   912.579] (**) NVIDIA(0): Option "Ignore" "1"
[   912.579] (**) NVIDIA(0): Ignoring display device Data Export HDMI to VGA (DFP-1)

and the reason is (likely) the xorg.conf as well.

The resolution is correctly detected for a 15.53" monitor, but "high".
For a wild guess, try

xrandr --dpi 96

and start one of the "oversized" applications (make sure you really create a new process)

Re: [Solved] Nvidia Driver issues, UI scale, hdmi refuses to enable

Thank you, dpi was the problem with the oversized applications. As for HDMI output, I forgot about a configuration file that blacklisted DP-1. It has been removed, and I no longer have an issue with HDMI output. (And now that I found it, I have no idea why I put it there in the first place.)

Re: [Solved] Nvidia Driver issues, UI scale, hdmi refuses to enable

Be aware that the first mentioned problem will break OpenGL acceleration, you want to fix that.
