HP EliteBook 1050 G1 Nvidia Adventures and overall help needed

sudoman · 27 February 2021 07:55

Hello again,

I re-installed, twice actually since after I tried the install with the Prop. drivers after installation was done I got stuck on the boot screen.
On my second go I did use the open source drivers and install success!
After the installation was complete I updated the system using pacman -Syu and after a reboot I went to the Hardware configuration and installed the proprietary drivers as it shows:

Again I think the driver doesn't work, my second monitor doesn't want to start nor the Nvidia settings.
As advised I am paste-ing again the requested logs:

Configuration seems correct.
There is still no nvidia card in Xorg and systemd.
You may confirm with udevadm.

It's a vendor issue.
@librewish what do you think?

sudoman · 27 February 2021 19:02

Anything else I could try ?

petsam · 27 February 2021 20:17

Check BIOS for a setting about GPUs.
It could be that the firmware does this.

sudoman · 27 February 2021 20:19

I have 4 settings:
Intel
Hybrid
Nvidia
Auto

It's currently set at auto

So I was correct in my suspicion.
Choose one of the other options.
It’s a laptop, so maybe you can use Hybrid, letting Linux handle both GPUs, depending on the work load.
It’s up to you.

I've set it to hybrid and again the situation is the same, also using Nvidia only it doesn't want to start the system.
This is how my hw manager looks atm:

I've tried before that to uninstall the Prop. drivers and when I swithched to hybrid my second monitor managed to light up.

Were there any new updates that just were pushed, or I installed some old ones?

petsam · 27 February 2021 21:22

Does it matter?
Probably re-installation, reboot have done the job.

Have fun!

sudoman · 27 February 2021 21:28

Hey thank you very much for the time spend and effort.
I seemed to manage to stress test the current configuration and all looks fine and dandy.

Just a couple of more questions I have before I go

You've mentioned that with this setup the system is wise enough to select between Intel and Nvidia GPU based on the load, did I understood this correctly.
Also if I try some games I suppose Nvidia GPU should be automatically set as primary to use?

Thanks once more I hope this huge topic can be of a help to other as well!

petsam · 27 February 2021 21:35
