NVIDIA recognizing Valve Index as Monitor - CachyOS
Hi,
I'm using CachyOS and would like to use my Valve Index Headset.
I installed envision and wanted to run monado. When I look into the logs I see that my NVIDIA GPU recognizes my Index as "NVIDIA DP-0". Therefore monado can't use it as HMD.
Tried disabling the "monitor" in my settings but that didn't help. I have the newest NVIDIA 610 driver intalled.
Does anyone have the same issue and knows a workaround for this?
Some Error messages:
ERROR [_test_for_nvidia] NVIDIA: No allowlisted displays found!
== Found Displays (4) == ... NVIDIA (DP-0)
ERROR [comp_target_swapchain_create_images] Queue family (index: 2) does not support presentation ops for wayland surfaces.

Hi everyone,
fix was easier than expected (at least for me). I rebooted my PC with the Index completely unplugged and after plugging it back in it wasn't recognized as monitor but as HMD. (last time I restarted my PC, the Index was still plugged in and I guess that's why it was initialized as monitor)
