Hi,

I want to buy a laptop for working and very light gaming on to go. I’m currently looking for Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 with AMD CPU and NVIDIA GPU. I’m going to use Fedora or Arch Linux with i3wm. The problem is I’m not sure if dual gpu setup is going to work or not. All i want to use igpu for all tasks until more power needed, then it needs to switch automatically to dgpu

Is this possible if so is there any good guide about it?

Thanks

Off topic a bit, but how is the Nvidia + Wayland experience?

Are the horror stories true? Do you use multiple monitors?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
