Comment 38 for bug 2031198

>> Does the BIOS let you disable G-Sync?

Nope. I can't find any video settings at all in the bios on this machine. It has a system info listing that shows the intel and nvidia gpus. But i can't change anything about graphics.

I tried disabling G-sync in both windows and linux nvidia control panels, but i'm getting the same behavior :(

I thought it could be helpful to grab `journalctl -b0` output for 2 logins:
* Using proprietary nvidia v535 drivers, with drm *en*abled, captured after a full login (the login screen displayed, the x session blocked on nvidia_modeset
* Using proprietary nvidia v535 drivers, with drm *dis*abled, captured after a full login (the login screen didn't display, used the comment#5 hack to log in -- x session displayed fine.)

The only thing I've spotted so far in these logs is that the nvidia driver seems to complete its setup a little earlier with drm enabled-- don't notice any explanation for why the user x session hangs blocked on nvidia_modeset in this configuration, when the gdm3 x session doesn't :(
