External monitor in tuigreet
I have a laptop with an external monitor attached through HDMI cable.
NVIDIA dedicated graphics card with nvidia-open drivers.
Is it possible to show tuigreet on the external monitor?

Try passing the
nvidia_drm.fbdev=1parameter to the kernel params in addition to modeset=1, otherwise the kernel will generally not initialize a framebuffer on the nvidia card that would make the TTY work.

Doesn't work, neither with nvidia nor with nvidia-open
