Description Miika Tuominen 2024-01-03 00:40:15 CET

Hello. I'm interested in contributing to the wiki, and it seems I need to get a sponsor to be able to do that. I did not find any instructions on getting a sponsorship in order to edit the wiki (without submitting a package to be reviewed), but I figured creating a ticket here was the most rational way. 

I was interested in improving specifically the "Howto/Optimus/NVIDIA PrimaryGPU Support" section, since currently it has instructions for setting Nvidia as the primary GPU only on X11, but not wayland (which is the only supported display server anyway). The reason I consider this important information is because on laptops, you need to have Nvidia as the primary driver in order to use a second monitor.

In the spirit of leaving the campground cleaner than I found it, I would also like to add instructions to the contributing page on how to edit the wiki, as it took a while for me to find out what I have to do. And I'm still not sure, since the wiki login claims I don't have correct credentials - maybe it will work when I join the "wikiedit" group.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Miika

Thanks for the report.

Unfortunately, we don't have a wiki account group wired to authorize our moinmoin wiki instance. Nor do we have a clean review process for content from other contributor.

Best is to put what you need to change here and I will adapt.

The way forward is probably to use the fedora wiki for that:
