Does graphics switching in popos works without full system restart or at least without restarting X11? I didn't think there was a way to make switching graphics work in linux without either restarting X11 session or restarting the machine completely.
On related note - does external display works without nvidia GPU? A lot of manufactures have lately decided to hardwire external HDMI connection to descrete GPU and hence it has been pretty painful to use NVIDIA powered Laptops on Linux. :(
I have an older system76/galago laptop(Intel graphics). I use it with 2 external 4k(HP/Z27) monitors with no issues. Previously used with 1 4k, 1 1920xSomething/Portrait. Resolution switching works fine. Also, PopOS gnome UI comes with build-in tiling, feels like slightly nerfed i3. It also works fine across monitors/virtual desktops and so on. PopOS desktop is X11 based and I havent played with Wayland on that laptop
