I was trying to put
nvidia-drm.modeset=1 in /etc/default/grub,
or
options nvidia_drm modeset=1 in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-drm.conf
but when I restart the system, lightdm fails to init.
Manjaro XFCE Using intel display (i915) with nvidia prime offloading (driver video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime)
edit: I'm an idiot, forgot to add "prime-run" or these environment variables to firefox start.
__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia
So the command to start firefox ended like this:
env NVD_LOG=1 MOZ_X11_EGL=1 MOZ_DISABLE_RDD_SANDBOX=1 LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia /usr/lib/firefox/firefox
edit 2: Jumped the gun on closing the issue... adding prime-run adds these errors to firefox start

Can you try setting the MOZ_DRM_DEVICE environment variable to the correct /dev/dri/renderD??? device for your NVIDIA card, and see if that helps?

I tried setting to /dev/driver/renderD129 that is the nvidia card to no avail.

But if I set the kernel parameter nvidia_drm.modeset=1 the system doesn't start. Lightdm fails.
You would need to investigate why lightdm fails to start with that parameter set, as this driver requires it set to work.
I'm getting the same Failed to create EGLSurface!: 0x3009 error along with the other three lines as the OP mentioned in the 2nd post, and I've confirmed that the nvidia drm modeset is set properly, so it can't be the cause. I'm running Xubuntu 20.04 and all the compiling worked as intended with no errors. I can get Kodi working (it appears to use Chromium as a backend, judging by the logs from NVD_LOG=1) but Firefox throws that error for some reason.
@Yowlen I assume you've also have multiple GPUs?
Firefox is throwing the error because it's attempting to use the wrong EGL implementation. I haven't managed to understand exactly what options are needed to get Firefox to pick the correct DRM device/EGL implementations in these circumstances.
Correct. I don't know how much it matters, but I'm using an AMD GPU as primary and nvidia as secondary with the proprietary drivers set to offload on demand. Specifically, an R9 290x and GTX 1050 respectively, if it helps.
Closing issue, as we require modeset=1 set in order to work.
I have nvidia-drm.modeset=1 working:
$ sudo cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset
Y
I'm trying the new direct backend but this is still an issue.

I've been looking over the Firefox code again, specifically the glxtest part. It seems that when it asks for the EGLDisplay, it passes in an X11 Display object from the default display (the one on the Intel card)[1]. That seems to be restricting the list of EGL implementations to ones that are compatible with Intel. However, when Firefox actually goes to use EGL for real, it asks EGL for the default implementation, and doesn't pass in anything related to X11.
This is all to say, I'm not sure it can ever work with how Firefox is written at the moment. You may have more luck raising an issue in Bugzilla.

Mine was also this same issue, and likewise with modeset=1 properly set, although I forgot to upgrade to new versions so I'm still running the same version of the driver I was back then. I can try to provide the same logs to help confirm if it's desired, but I don't know how necessary it will be given the issue you found within Firefox itself. It doesn't seem like new versions of the driver will be helpful until that's solved first.
That said, given mine is a rather unique setup with two discreet GPUs, the primary being AMD and the secondary Nvidia, it might give some different results and I'd be happy to test things to help ensure this project would work in a variety of setups.
