### Phantom non-existent display on Nvidia ([cosmic-randr#13](https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-randr/issues/13))

If while using an Nvidia GPU, `cosmic-settings` and `cosmic-randr list` show an additional display that can not be disabled, try Nvidia's experimental framebuffer device.

```nix
boot.kernelParams = [ "nvidia_drm.fbdev=1" ];
```
