Issue: I can't set my laptop to use discrete graphics in the BIOS due to limitations with my Lenovo laptop 15ARH05. This work around is almost bullet proof but my laptop screen is frozen with the display manager,
Setup:
Arch Linux with Wayland and Hyprland.
VA-API hardware acceleration works with NVIDIA.
Current Workaround:
Files below are: |Startup Script|XSetup|sddm.conf|hyprland.desktop|
Startup Script (/usr/local/bin/start_hyprland.sh):
# Set environment variables and start Hyprland
env WLR_DRM_DEVICES=/dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card1 \
LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia \
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland \
GBM_BACKEND=nvidia-drm \
__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia \
WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS=1 \
NVD_BACKEND=direct \
Hyprland
Xsetup (/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup):
# Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears
# Source environment variables
if [ -d /etc/environment.d ]; then
for file in /etc/environment.d/*; do
source "$file"
done
fi
sddm.conf (/etc/sddm.conf):
[General]
Session=/usr/local/bin/start_hyprland.sh (just calls the startup script)
hyprland.desktop (/usr/share/wayland-sessions/hyprland.desktop):
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Hyprland
Comment=An intelligent dynamic tiling Wayland compositor
Exec=/usr/local/bin/start_hyprland.sh
Type=Application
Problems:
The laptop screen is frozen and will not work despite it being registered in $ hyprctl monitors:

Goal: Find a solution to use hardware acceleration with both external and laptop monitors functioning.
Need: Guidance on configuring Wayland and Hyprland to ensure both monitors are recognized and hardware acceleration is functional. Thank you in advance for reading and taking your time to aid.
