[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1849214] Re: "nvidia on-demand" mode does not support external displays
After some more research I found out that this is actually due to an unimpelmented feature in Nvidia's drivers. On this model of laptop, the video output ports all connect directly to the discrete Nvidia GPU, and Nvidia's drivers do not yet support the GPU being used as a sink from the integrated GPU and piping the integrated GPU's output to a display. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-435 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849214 Title: "nvidia on-demand" mode does not support external displays Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-435 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In a recent driver, Nvidia finally added Linux support for render offload, where most graphics are rendered on the CPU-onboard GPU and only certain applications are rendered on the discrete Nvidia GPU.

Switching to "Nvidia" mode, where everything is rendered on the discrete GPU, makes the external displays work. The laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme (Gen 1). I have found this occurs both with nvidia-graphics-drivers-435 and nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 in the "graphics-drivers" ppa.
