x11-misc/lightdm: tell the users experiencing the "X not started on a Nvidia GPU" problem what to do
Leaving the deployed default configuration be because the issue appears to be a bug in Nvidia drivers rather than lightdm itself, and I see no point in switching this off for everyone when all that is needed is a one-time, one-line change. Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/886607 Signed-off-by: Marek Szuba <marecki@gentoo.org>
