  • eGPU, Wayland, Gnome3 and Fedora

    I’ve just got a Razor Core X that I use with a Radeon graphic card. By default Wayland, well Mutter actually, continue to use the Intel card of my T580.

    To force it to use the second card, I had to add a udev rules and reboot. And that’s all!

    $ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/61-mutter-primary-gpu.rules
    ENV{DEVNAME}=="/dev/dri/card1", TAG+="mutter-device-preferred-primary"

    note: You need Gnome 3.38.2 for this to work properly. See: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1562

    update: the post was initially written for Fedora 33, but the fix also work great with Fedora 34.
