Hey all, I've been trying to figure out this issue for quite some time now. My laptop has DisplayPort over Type-C capability, but that's hooked up to my nVidia GPU on my laptop and won't give any output to any monitors, even through a Type-C hub that outputs HDMI. I've been trying to figure out how to get the nVidia GPU to drive the external Type-C monitor but without success.
I've been redirected to edit some nVidia power management files - not sure how many I've tried to find and edit, but I know some were in the /etc/rules.d/ directory.
xrandr -q detects my internal laptop display and my AMD-driven HDMI connection, but no DisplayPort through Type-C through my nVidia GPU.
System hardware:
- ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (2019-2020)
- AMD Ryzen 7 4800H w/ Radeon Graphics
- nVidia GTX 1660 Ti Mobile
