Dear all, is there any way to get an external display to work on a ThinkPad W530? >From what I read, both the mini-dp and the vga connector work only with discrete graphics, which I have enabled in the BIOS (optimus/switching mode). At boot I see these lines:
[ 4.991148] nouveau0: NVIDIA GK107 (0e73c0a2) [ 4.991148] nouveau0: autoconfiguration error: error: bios: unable to locate usable image [ 4.991148] nouveau0: autoconfiguration error: error: bios ctor failed, -22 [ 4.991148] nouveau0: autoconfiguration error: unable to create nouveau device: 22 Anyone know what the issue is? With BIOS set to discrete only I see the same lines and then a kernel panic (no console.) Running xrandr shows VGA1 as disconnected even with a cable plugged in. So 2 questions: 1) Do I really need to use the discrete graphics or is there some other way? 2) How to get discrete graphics to work. Any help appreciated :) - Malte
