I think after some system update, can't detect external monitor in hdmi-1 anymore.
Both monitors works at the same time in Win11.
I can have *only* external monitor to work if I run nvidia-xconfig, it creates /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but then internal display does not work; it's like I can have only internal display or external display with nvidia-xconfig.

Any suggestions?

Re: Intel + Nvidia does not detect external monitor [SOLVED]

if I run nvidia-xconfig

Don't, terrible idea in general and esp. for optimus systems.

The HDMI is most likely wired to the nvidia chip.
The nvida module loads, but extremely late (17+ seconds into the boot).
=> does the provider get detected when you restart the X11 server after the boot?
Do you use optimus-mananger or bbswitch/acpi_call to power off the nvidia chip?

Both monitors works at the same time in Win11.

I am wondering how to check that, can you help with terminal commands?
All I can say right now that when I kill Xorg, it restarts ok:

xrandr --listproviders

Providers: number : 1
Provider 0: id: 0x45 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 4 outputs: 3 associated providers: 0 name:Intel

No

Re: Intel + Nvidia does not detect external monitor [SOLVED]

Fastboot in BIOS …  installed on separate SSD.

Is completely irrelevant. Windows fast start is a windows setting that has nothing to do with your BIOS.
Windows hibernates by default even if you shut it down - this causes two OS running the HW in parallel and to all sorts of freakish behavior.

All I can say right now that when I kill Xorg, it restarts ok:

But still ignores the nvidia chip, what file contains the intel driver setting?

grep -ri intel /{usr/share,etc}/X11/xorg.conf*

Also post the output of "lspci" so we're not chaing a dead goose here (in case the nvidia chip has no crtc at all)

Oh do you mean this new "Fast Startup", thanks I will check it, though it was about good-old BIOS Fastboot.

Errr… you're using https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bumblebee ?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bumble … e_monitors but you don't actually want to do this.
nvida supports prime and that's the more convenient and efficient approach.

Re: Intel + Nvidia does not detect external monitor [SOLVED]

prime-run doesn't work because the GPU isn't assigned to that server and that's most likely because of bumblebee (w/ your dmesg I'm pretty sure it deactivates the GPU, blacklists the nvidia module or something else)

modprobe -c | grep nvidia

Unless you're using it for a specific reason, get rid of bumblebee, things should afterwards justwork™

Re: Intel + Nvidia does not detect external monitor [SOLVED]

I had a feeling that NVIDIA driver is buggy, got kernel panic after using this config:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bumblebee#Multiple_monitors

Think need to collection kernel logs...

Re: Intel + Nvidia does not detect external monitor [SOLVED]

The BusIDs in the example don't match yours and you probably have still the nvidia kernel module blacklisted / the chip powered down.

If not, post an updated system journal.
