UNRESOLVED - Broken gpu driver

No, nothing happens

Oke, we try something else.

Please try this:

  • add ‘nogpumanager’ kernel parameter
  • delete /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-nvidia-offload.conf
  • create /etc/X11/xorg.conf with contents:
Section "Device"
    Identifier     "intel"
    Driver         "modesetting"
    BusID          "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

The 11-nvidia-offload.conf file doesn't exist

Oke thats good,

Kerel parameter would like this

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nogpumanager"

Not sure if you have more parameters added

sudo update-grub

yes, I still have the splash added

Oke after that splash add the nogpumanager

sudo upgrade-grub

Edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf

The file already exists

Do I leave the org.conf.d file?

Yeah would not harm i guess (you can always rename it), also if this does not work you can revert it back.

Try to reboot

It's back to no brightness settings and internet, graphics are back to llvm

Oke, revert it back please.

This is frustrating ...

When you go to bios and revert the hybrid part what happens ?

Agreed. I need to be somewhere at 6pm (my time), so you are on your own.:wink:

Including the changes in the xorg.conf file, everything works but the integrated graphics are still being used. The nvidia card is claimed though and the driver is still the nouveau one. Follow your guide again now that I have internet on the machine?

Secure boot is disabled, but it still says latency=0 in the configuration

Zorin have Kernel 5.11_43

You can try that.

Did that, but the configuration still says nouveau and latency=0 even though secure boot is disabled

Can you recheck something for me Broken gpu driver - #63 by Michel

Your file in that location?

I wrote /usr/share/X11/org.conf.d
It should be /usr/share/X11/org.conf.d/20-intel.conf
