After several days of fixing sway errors, decided to go out here, after installing nouveau drivers (Which fixed previous sway error), sway throws me another one when trying to run dbus-run-session sway,
Context:
Gentoo on a laptop with NVIDIA gpu, and integrated intel graphics card, custom kernel with compability for nouveau drivers(I suppose), user added to groups seat wheel input video audio users, running on open-rc without elogind, XDG_RUNTIME_DIR set up correctly to run that,
The error:
[swaybg] ul_display_roundtrip failedd.ES=1 to suppress this checkalize"o create screen"

#

got little to none info about that swaybg error on the gentoo forums

#

not so bald, but Sway won't start

#

maybe i should add some kernel params? (I have none currently)

wicked spade
#

optimus?

wooden star
#

Your intel gpu should work

#

In the meantime

#

But lets try to solve this :)

#

Can you paste your dmesg?

wooden star
#

It takes nouveau a while to catch up to the latest cards

#

Also— if you want to use nouveau, i can almost promise intel igpu will be faster than nouveau

#

Well unless there’s new work idk i havent kept up to date with nvidia in years

wicked spade
#

I'll post dmesg when i come back

wicked spade
#

that's the useful information i found in the dmesg
