Are you 4K? 4K correct. As far as I understand, I have integrated intel graphics, which is what I use every day, and that nvidia chip I never use and have no real need for, except that external display ports are only connected to that chip, so I have to use it in that case. I had a P70 with the same config and was able to get nouveau working on it and HDMI out, but P73 uses different chips and never fully got it working (well, the monitor turns on and I see a mouse cursor, so something works) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GnyBE1xc4qx3EF-IcUOwr7d9D8Npzy63Pwj-joOw86o/view#heading=h.tmm3ssfqplva explains how I got it to work on P70 > HDMI ...

(I know, I live with bane of a "tainted kernel" because of > them and flop back and forth to see how Nouveau is progressing) I do not have plans to use the nvidia binary drivers and do want my nvidia chip to be turned off all the time except when I need video out (for battery reasons) If you wanted context/more info: https://www.spinics.net/lists/nouveau/msg11393.html https://www.spinics.net/lists/nouveau/msg11394.html and older from 2020: https://www.spinics.net/lists/nouveau/msg05361.html Thanks, Marc -- "A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in" - A.S.R.
