Re: AMD GPU not used by Fedora 31

In that
case, I did a text mode install and then install the (Nvidia) 
drivers for the discrete graphics to get around the GUI installer's
attempts to use bumblebee (linux optimus support).

Could you tell me how you did a text mode install ? Via Kickstart ?

I didn't know that there was a way to start the Anaconda installer via command line.

Please share.

I don't have Optimus as my laptop is old.

Optimus goes back 10 years, but I don't know if it  was used with
removable graphics cards.    In any case, if you want to run everything
using the graphics card you are in the same pickle I had when the
software controlled switch failed in my 2010 Macbook Pro.   In that
case, I did a text mode install and then install the (Nvidia) 
drivers for the discrete graphics to get around the GUI installer's
attempts to use bumblebee (linux optimus support).
