Steps
Install sddm:
# pacman -S sddm xorg
After reboot, examine the kernel and the sg1 pci infos:
[root@archvfio ~]# lspci | grep -i vga
00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio GPU (rev 01)
07:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation SG1 [Server GPU SG-18M] (rev 01)
[root@archvfio ~]# uname -a
Linux archvfio 5.19.1-arch2-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu, 11 Aug 2022 16:06:13 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Add virtio gpu into blacklist:
# vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
# blacklist virtio_gpu
Didn’t take effects, change the graphical to qxl and added blacklist qxl:
Take effects:
[root@archvfio ~]# lsmod | grep qxl
[root@archvfio ~]# ls /dev/dri/
by-path card0 renderD128
Examine the sg1 connected info:
for p in /sys/class/drm/*/status; do con=${p%/status}; echo -n "${con#*/card?-}: "; cat $p; done
DP-1: disconnected
DP-2: disconnected
DP-3: disconnected
HDMI-A-1: disconnected
HDMI-A-2: disconnected
HDMI-A-3: disconnected
HDMI-A-4: disconnected

Install x11vnc and glmark2 for benchmarking:
# vim /etc/pacman.conf
[archlinuxcn]
#The Chinese Arch Linux communities packages.
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://repo.archlinuxcn.org/$arch
# pacman -Sy
# pacman -S x11vnc glmark2
