If someone is interested in a workaround for using either nvidia or the intel card, I've worked out the following setup:
One grub entry for intel only: modprobe.blacklist=nvidia_drm modprobe.blacklist=nvidia_modeset modprobe.blacklist=nvidia snd_hda_intel.enable=1,0,0 Adding the above parameters to grub and using just the intel GPU I'm able to run my omen laptop with 8-9W (25% Display brightness) which gives me around 7-8h :) Every other setup just goes with around 15W .... Second grub for using the nvidia together with the binary blob: I'm using the following grub parameter to tell that I want to use the discrete card: discretevga=y Therefore I've a shell script that checks for this cmdline param and activate the needed xorg conf: #!/bin/bash if [ -f /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf ] then rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf fi cat /proc/cmdline | grep 'discretevga' > /dev/null 2>&1 if [ $? -eq 0 ] then ln -s /usr/local/etc/x11-nvidia.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf else rmmod nvidia_drm rmmod nvidia_modeset rmmod nvidia fi exit 0 here is the x11-nvidia.conf that I'm using: Section "Module" Load "modesetting" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Nvidia Card" Driver "nvidia" BusID "1:0:0" Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration" EndSection Drawback is obviously the needed reboot, that is needed to switch between the cards, but at least I'm able to use really both on their own without any issue. And for me 90% of the time I'm just using the intel card, so most important is low power consumption. Hopefully this helps some of you guys ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803179 Title: System does not reliably come out of suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1803179/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
