The device is Lenovo Legion 7. This laptop has a mux switch to switch
between dynamic/hybrid or discrete graphics mode. This laptop has a high
resolution with high pixel density than the other displays out there,
but I don't know the exact number. Additionally, this laptop can adjust
the display refresh rate between 60 and 165 Hz.
---
There were 1 problem I encountered in dynamic/hybrid graphics mode:
- The widgets shown were too small.
Details:
The resolution was correct, at 2560x1600, but all widgets shown were too
small. I suspected this was due to the laptop screen high pixel density
and the widget size calculation didn't make use of physical dimension,
but in terms of pixel.
I thought installing NVIDIA driver would fix this, but no; this worked
in OpenSUSE Leap with KDE Plasma and I think it was because of the
inclusion of NVIDIA OpenGL driver.
The current workaround was to scale by 200% in "Display Settings",
although the login screen isn't affected by the scaling at all.

There were 3 problems I encountered in discrete graphics mode:
- The widgets were are too small, like the hybrid graphics mode issue.
- The DE seemed to use wrong screen refresh rate.
The refresh rate was fixed at 93 Hz in the "Display Settings".
Changing the refresh rate between 60 Hz and 165 Hz by Fn keys didn't
update the 93 Hz in the "Display Settings".
This didn't happen in the hybrid graphics mode.
OpenSUSE Leap with KDE Plasma properly detected 60 and 165 Hz, so I
think it may be either GNOME DE or xorg misconfigurations.
- Screen brightness was fixed at 100%.
Details:
Screen brightness could be adjusted by the keyboard Fn keys, but the
brightness was fixed at 100%.
This didn't happen in the hybrid graphics mode.
This is the most annoying problem and have forced me to use the hybrid
graphics mode which I don't like.
My first thought was either a specific NVIDIA issue or xorg
misconfigurations.
So I tried adding "acpi_backlight=vendor" and
"nvdia.NVreg_RegistryDwords=EnableBrightnessControl=1" to GRUB, but
didn't work at all.

In discrete graphics mode, a quick "sudo journalctl -p3 -b0" showed
below:

In hybrid graphics mode, "sudo journalctl -p3 -b0" output like above
except that there was no:
