 Posted: Tue Jul 20, 2021 11:50 am Post subject: Nvidia + Intel + i3 - blank screen (laptop) |
 |
|
Hi,
I'm having trouble getting the display to correctly redirect to the internal monitor. After starting i3 (startx command) the screen is redirected to HDMI output and not to the internal monitor.
I have no idea how to properly debug this. I am not very familiar with the X server. I suspect I am missing an entry on the internal monitor. Unfortunately, I don't know where or what entry I should add.
Anybody have idea where is the problem???
.xinitrc
| Code: | | exec dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session i3 |
lspci:
| Code: | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU116M [GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile] (rev a1)

With those changes, is your problem fully solved? If so, please mark your thread as solved.
Also, for the benefit of future readers, could you show the rewritten xorg.conf that worked for you, so that readers can compare to see what was needed (in case that nVidia link goes dead, or is unclear)? |

Yes, those changes fully solved my problem. I had installed the proper drivers, but I have an incorrect X server configuration.
Below you can see the configuration files that I had to change.
.xinitrc | Code: | xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0
xrandr --auto
exec dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session i3 |
xorg.conf | Code: | # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 460.67

And also I forgot to show my make.conf file
