NVIDIA Is Helping To Improve Linux's Dynamic Display Mux Support For Laptops

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.

This isn’t really driver related. It is the Wayland compositor’s job to properly handle multiple GPUs, which is lacking in some (a very popular, Wayland library that lacks proper multi-GPU support is wlroots) compositors. Vulkan drivers and DRM are already enough to properly handle multiple GPUs. I guess Wayland implementers just haven’t cared enough about the issue, or maybe are figuring out a “perfect” way to address it (a la 3 year long pull request on wayland-protocols repo incoming)
