envycontrol: [BUG] nvidia mode not working
Describe the bug Nvidia mode doesn’t work properly (specifically for lightdm in my case)
To Reproduce
- fresh install of arch linux with base base-devel linux linux-firmware xorg-server qtile lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter
- boot into lightdm
- Install envycontrol. Run
sudo envycontrol -s nvidia
- reboot
- there will be a black screen with a cursor blinking.
- However if you’re on a dual screen setup, the login manager will be there on the secondary display instead of the primary display
Expected behavior There should be a login screen (and if plugged into an extra display it should show up on the primary display)
Screenshots Excluded because pretty self explanatory
System Information:
- Model: [ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 2022]
- Distro: [Arch Linux]
- DE/WM and Display Manager (if applicable): [qtile lightdm]
- EnvyControl version: [3.3.0]
- Nvidia driver version: [535.113.01-4]

After switching to another OS for a while (had some university work to do), the issue just randomly fixed itself when I returned today. I’m no longer able to reproduce the bug so I’m going to close this issue.
@D3vil0p3r don’t have nvidia-exec installed. So, I think my issue is completely different.
