[SOLVED] nvidia gpu not detected by linux

BananPrzydawka · 2024-04-07 15:42:15

i have an nvidia optimus laptop with an intel igpu and an nvidia dedicated gpu.
on kde5 xorg i used to use a package called optimus-switcher to force xorg to only use the dedicated gpu.
recently i made the smart move of updating my system without checking the changes and got kde6, witch removed xorg support and migrated me to wayland :(((((. wayland ran only on the igpu and didnt even touch the dedicated card, witch gave shit performance, optimus manager or any other like it doesnt support wayland. i attempted to force wayland to use the nvidia gpu only, i used a a program called envycontrol from github, ofcourse without reading the code. after "switching" to nvidia my system no longer booted at witch point i got a live boot usb and chrooted in to the system and used the programs command -reset, witch made my system boot again, but now it doesnt even detect the dedicated gpu at all. the standard command "lspci -k | grep -A 2 -E "(VGA|3D)"" yeilds only the integrated gpu, and i cant use my external monitor. i tried to use the fox from this post, as it seemed as the same thing, but that didnt fix it.
this isnt a hardware issiue as any other system i boot detects both gpus.

First off, this is completely untrue. Wayland became the default, but xorg support is not removed in any way.

Second, have you read the Optimus wiki page recently?

i was confidently wrong. thank you for the correction . i will make sure to research my information better next time. unfortunately its too late for these solutions as my arch install doesnt detect my dedicated gpu at the moment. thank you for any effort in advance

Please post your complete system journal for the boot:

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

"ibt=off" is no longer required, you can remove that.

There's a PCI bus issue w/ your ethernet chip.

…

=> Disable the nvx.service

Removed "ibt=off" from /etc/default/grub and updated grub. Disabled nvx.service. rebooted
That did it.
Thank you so much for the help guys.
