Monitor doesn't work when on hybrid mode.

Open sticsk opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

On my ASUS TUF Gaming FX505DT with GTX1650 and AMD Ryzen 5 3550H, when I'm on Hybrid mode, I can see my monitor on nvidia-settings but it doesn't have any output.

Whenever I want to use my monitor or TV, I have to switch to nvidia in order to get it work and it's pretty incovenient, is it any way to fix this?

Depending on your hardware, you may be out of luck. For example, I have this laptop: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X1_Extreme

Both the HDMI port and DisplayPort outputs created when using either a USB-C adapter or Thunderbolt dock are wired to the Nvidia dGPU.

Nvidia added support for AMDGPU Reverse PRIME with the 470.42.01 version of the driver. I recommend updating it and trying again as it worked in my case.

I've been testing this out since yesterday morning (thanks for the tip @bjsowa!) and things mostly work. However, I've noticed that if I try to disable my built-in laptop display, I saw some crashes, including when trying to suspend the laptop.

Hello @sticsk Is this still reproducible on a modern distribution with updated linux kernel, nvidia driver version and using the optimus-manager-git package? The project is facing a revamp so, please stick with the -git version of this package.

Let me know if this issue is still relevant to you ok?

Have a nice week.
