Nvidia card is no longer detected Garuda linux

[andrea28]

Yes I did, but it still doesn’t detect the graphics card

[filo]

Can you see your Nvidia card from a live USB?

[nepti]

Background for potential helpers as to why the Nvidia GPU is deactivated:

HDMI ports disconnected

Hello everyone, I apologize in advance but I am a beginner and I also apologize for my English Anyway, I have an old monitor that I connected to my laptop via an HDMI(laptop)-VGA(monitor) cable However the monitor is not detected In particular, if I start a wayland session and run the xrandr command I get the following output: [Screenshot_%T_%d] Quando invece apro una sessione X11, ottengo il seguente output: [Screenshot_%T_%d-1] My PC is equipped with only one HDMI port, I don’t know w…

@andrea28

I have this error since I fixed the monitor problem

You should have said that back then, then it would have been easier to fix the problem.

@andrea28

the last snapshot dates back to this morning

I expressed myself incorrectly, I wanted to know when your oldest snapshot was from (in the hope that switching the GPU still works in this one).

@filo

Can you see your Nvidia card from a live USB?

If you don’t have a live.iso to hand, you can also check this in your Windows device manager.

---

Then the question is whether you actually need the Nvidia MX130. The MX series doesn’t really have more power than the Intel iGPU. Nvidia only invented this nonsense to be able to sell more GPUs, as long as it says NVIDIA on the data sheet. This is just marketing and money-making. You have the Intel iGPU activated by default under Linux and have probably never used the MX130. If you don’t need the MX130, just uninstall the Nvidia drivers and/or switch to the open source driver nouveau. With the weak card you won’t notice any difference between the two drivers anyway.

---

If you need the Nvidia card, then load the oldest snapshot you have and try to switch to hybrid mode:

Boot the oldest snapshot from the grub menu, after logging in confirm the restore dialog with yes and reboot.

Then log in to an x11 session and try to switch to hybrid again with envycontrol:

sudo envycontrol -s hybrid

Reboot. If that doesn’t work, then try deleting the cache:

sudo envycontrol --cache-delete

and then perform a reset:

sudo envycontrol --reset

The reset will undo all changes made by envycontrol.

Then remove envycontrol:

sudo pacman -R envycontrol

Reboot.

If any error messages occur at any time, anywhere, then post them.

[Bro]

Can it be reset/enabled via the BIOS settings?

[nepti]

I don’t think so, with HP laptops you can’t normally activate/deactivate the iGPU/dGPU in the BIOS. Let’s wait for a response from @andrea28 as to whether the dGPU is recognized under Windows or via live.iso. Not that the MX130 died by chance…

In my opinion that would be no loss… only a dead Nvidia GPU is a good GPU

[andrea28]

Thank you all so much for your support
@filo Unfortunately I can’t check with a USB, but from Windows, as Nepti advised me, I can see the graphics card.

@nepti Thank you so much for the support you have always given me.
Unfortunately, when I noticed the error with the card, I didn’t intervene because, as you say, it is actually a very poor card
However, I wanted to be able to solve the problem so that I no longer see the error messages and
fix everything
In any case, I really think I’ll uninstall the Nvidia drivers also because, as you correctly say, I’ve almost never used it except for testing.
as for the snapshots, I attach the photo for clarity, now the last one dates back to yesterday evening

[andrea28]

exactly, as @nepti says from the bios I cannot activate or deactivate the graphics card

[filo]

I know it’s a kind of “random test”, but I would try reinstalling all packages (via Garuda Assistant or as explained in the Arch Wiki).

[andrea28]

do you think it could be a solution that at most gives me the nvidia card error or could it cause further problems?

As we say in Italy, "il gioco vale la candela? "

[filo]

There is certainly no basis for saying that it can help, but I see no reason why it should create additional problems.
After all, it seems to me that we are on a dead-end track…

[nepti]

Then you can forget my suggestion with an old snapshot.
First try the suggestion from @filo:

“Garuda Assistant” → Reinstall all packages

If anything goes wrong, it’s probably because of the stupid Realtek wifi card

If there are still issues after that, then remove the nvidia drivers:

sudo pacman -Rc nvidia-dkms nvidia-utils

[andrea28]

okay thanks a lot guys @nepti , @filo
I’ll try it now and let you know

EDIT

I reinstalled the packages, did a reboot but the nvidia graphics card is not detected

Posting the output after reinstalling the packages, where there were apparently some errors

NVRM: no Nvidia GPU found

Is the error message still there?

@andrea28

I reinstalled the packages, did a reboot but the nvidia graphics card is not detected

envycontrol removes the card from the PCI bus by using udev-rules when switching to the iGPU. The question is why envycontrol could no longer change the udev-rules and why this also did not work during the uninstallation of envycontrol (this undoes all changes)
Any udev experts present?

[andrea28]

yes, the error message is still present
I’m waiting to see if anyone is experienced with udev, otherwise I’ll proceed with removing the drivers
We hope that someone succeeds, especially if in the future there will be someone with the same problem who cannot do without the nvidia card

[nepti]

@andrea28

yes, the error message is still present

Then remove the nvidia drivers, then the error message should disappear. You don’t need the drivers at the moment anyway because the nvidia GPU is deactivated.

where I found the following file: 50-remove-nvidia.rules

the content of which is:

# Automatically generated by EnvyControl

# Remove NVIDIA USB xHCI Host Controller devices, if present
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pci", ATTR{vendor}=="0x10de", ATTR{class}=="0x0c0330", ATTR{power/control}="auto", ATTR{remove}="1"

# Remove NVIDIA USB Type-C UCSI devices, if present

# Remove NVIDIA VGA/3D controller devices
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pci", ATTR{vendor}=="0x10de", ATTR{class}=="0x03[0-9]*", ATTR{power/control}="auto", ATTR{remove}="1"

I assume at this point that the problem is this file.
I await your response before carrying out any operation

[nepti]

That’s right, that’s the udev rule that blacklists the nvidia gpu.
Delete the file:

sudo rm /lib/udev/rules.d/50-remove-nvidia.rules

Reboot.

Then post the output of:

inxi -Gxx

[andrea28]

yes, now it finally works!!
The startup error message is gone and the nvidia card is detected correctly

inxi -Gxx

I hope this solution can help someone in the future
Thank you very much @nepti for the solution and for all the answers given

I thank everyone who contributed, it’s truly a wonderful community

[nepti]

The question still remains as to why envycontrol could no longer change or delete this simple udev rule. But we will probably never know - only the holy penguin knows

But nice to hear that everything is working again
