@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social A suggestion maybe, but users who have hybrid gpu setup like me intel/amd to have option to open an application or .desktop shortcut in dedicated gpu like in GNOME. I tried it using cli everything works just missing a GUI option like in Gnome. And to make the application always open in dedicated gpu, a change in PrefersNonDefaultGPU=true in .Desktop file is all that needed. I hope that helps you guys or anyone looking for a solution to a similar setup like this.

Yup, and default GPU selection (for using HDMI connected to a Laptop's dGPU) needs to be added as a default widget when installing on these systems!

I've been using Envy for swapping GPUs about when needed and it works fine, but new users don't have that knowledge up front, sadly.

Maybe this doesn't exactly answer your question, but I launch all my games through Lutris, and have it set to always use dedicated GPU when launching a game.
