I would love to use an eGPU and adding one of the two or both enhancements would be a big step for wayland desktops as a whole. I was hoping to receive some feedback on the feasibility. I checked the code to see what work has been done on that end, but I apologize if I still have some misunderstandings about it.
I would like to keep this issue open as a tracker for improving the experience with eGPU.
This only concerns systems satisfying all requirements:
Use cases
Dedicated GPU mode
Use iGPU as primary DRM and use eGPU as dGPU
External only
Use eGPU as primary DRM when available at start.
Parallel mode
Start two DRM backends, each managing only the outputs directly connected to it.
Possible Enhancements
DRM handoff
Allow for a way to manually change the primary GPU on the fly. This would allow the "External only" setup to be hot pluggable.
Implement Parallel Mode
I would need some feedback on how feasible this is
