I installed the Nvidia Drivers from RPM Fusion on Fedora 31 on a hybrid
Intel-Nvidia laptop.
$ neofetch

As can be seen in the neofetch output above, the system detects two GPUs:
Intel and Nvidia, but Intel is listed first, and is the one that all apps end
up using.
nvidia-settings detects the Nvidia GPU and reports its temperature and other
details, but does not detect a display.
Settings → Details shows the “Intel Haswell Mobile” under the “Graphics”
section.
I do not have screenshots to that effect, but apps used to use Nvidia under
Fedora 30 on the same hardware just two days prior. Settings → Details also
reported Nvidia graphics being used.
Any help to restore things to the way they were in Fedora 30 will be greatly
appreciated.
