 Posted: Tue Jul 31, 2018 9:48 am Post subject: [solved] Help | startx with an optimus notebook |
 |
|
Hello folks,
first of all im pretty new at gentoo and this is (one off) my first attempt(s) to install gentoo linux on my Lenovo Legion y520 Notebook.
I followed the handbook to install gentoo with a lvm instead of the normal partition. As profile I picked the normal desktop/plasma one, without anything special like SE or nomultilib.
I already tried different variations to startx:
The first one is use nvidia-xconfig before startx. This one generates me the following /etc/X11/xorg.conf
| Code: | # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 396.24 (buildmeister@swio-display-x64-rhel04-13) Thu Apr 26 01:13:52 PDT 2018

When I startx afterwards I tells me no screen found. Here's the log after this attempt

The second variant is to start x without any xorg.conf. After this X starts and I see 3 Terminals in a realy bad solution. But keyboad, mouse and synaptics are working.
The third try is to follow the wiki/optimus and use this xorg.conf

After this X seems to start but the screen goes black. Even the screenbacklight stops so the display seems to shut down.
I hope someone here can help me to handle this. I realy tried a lot and still don't want to give up. A half year ago Linux Mint was installed on this Notebook. The optimus there seems to work even without me knowing it is a notebook like this.
I will add some informations about my system, maybe these can help finding a solution

...and better use
and remove
| Code: | | Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1" |
since the screen brightness is handled by the intel gpu on Optimus notebooks. |

Hi hhfeuer,
thank for your reply.
I changed your xinitrc a bit for kde to
| Code: | xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0
xrandr --auto
startkde
|
Since this the DE is starting.
Thank you very much! |
