Try video=1920x1080 kernel option.
IME, that will only pass through from framebuffers to X if xf86-video-intel is in use by Xorg. Otherwise, it will only apply on the framebuffers.
that should work out just fine - the laptop has intel and nvidia chips and I plan to set it up with the intel chip as primary display and nvidia through prime offloading.
I'll give that a try ... once my new USB hub arrtives, the laptop also does not have "old" osb connectors, only usb-c / thunderbolt.
Likely you'll also need a config file containing: Section "Device" Identifier "DefaultDevice" Driver "intel" EndSection in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, e.g. 25-intel.conf or 50-intel.conf. For most Intel IGPs, modesetting became the functional default X driver long ago. xf86-video-intel hasn't had an official release in something like 8 years, in part because of the development of the modesetting DIX. Optimus is another wrinkle that I suppose could get in the way of success. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.
