Add this to your niri config:
36
37
```c
38
debug {
39
// wait-for-frame-completion-before-queueing
40
render-drm-device "/dev/dri/renderD129" // note renderD129 is my NVIDIA GPU, yours can be different!
41
}
42
```
43
44
Choose either `wait-for-frame-completion-before-queueing` (can introduce input lag), or `render-drm-device` to render exclusively on selected gpu.
