Is it possible for an integrated graphics card to handle one screen and a dicrete one
to handle another? If so, how to configure it in Manjaro or Arch Linux?
My motivation is to fully use (achieve the highest possible efficiency) the hardware of my Dell XPS 15 9570 laptop with Linux, which has an UHD Intel® 630 integrated graphics card and also an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q one. With a monitor connected there are two screens in total.
I realize a classic dual screen GUI in which a desktop spans two screens and parts of a single window may be on both at once might not be feasible. I’d be content with a solution whereby each desktop (nowadays systems usually support multiple, even Windows does) would have a single card assigned. Less preferable would be to have two sessions, possibly for the same user, attached to the screens, with a single windowing system. Two instances of a windowing system – still worse, but if nothing better can be achieved, I’d take it.
