HDMI Issue with Nnvidia GTX 1660 Ti on Laptop Intel-TongFang QC71 9750H and MX 21.1

#1 Post by igo »

After removing my custom file for Intel VGA drive configuration and installing the Nvdia driver via the MX installer, my monitor connected to the HDMI interface did not work:

Code: Select all

$ xrandr --listmonitors
Monitors: 1
 0: +eDP-1 1920/344x1080/193+0+0 eDP-1

$ lspci -nn | grep -E 'VGA|Display|3D'
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation CoffeeLake-H GT2 [UHD Graphics 630] [8086:3e9b]
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU116M [GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile] [10de:2191] (rev a1)

$ xrandr --listproviders
Providers: number : 2
Provider 0: id: 0x43 cap: 0xf, Source Output, Sink Output, Source Offload, Sink Offload crtcs: 3 outputs: 1 associated providers: 0 name:modesetting
Provider 1: id: 0x28c cap: 0x2, Sink Output crtcs: 4 outputs: 5 associated providers: 0 name:NVIDIA-G0

The monitor connected to the HDMI interface only work after running the command:

Code: Select all

$ xrandr --setprovideroutputsource NVIDIA-G0 modesetting

$ xrandr --listmonitors
Monitors: 2
 0: +eDP-1 1920/344x1080/193+0+0 eDP-1
 1: +HDMI-1-0 900/443x1600/249+1920+0 HDMI-1-0
I need to run the command "xrandr --setprovideroutputsource NVIDIA-G0 modesetting" every time my MX 21.1 starts. The monitor rotation settings are not saved and I also need to rotate the auxiliary monitor in the "xfce4-display-settings" settings every time I restart.

Could you help me with a solution other than having to run the command every time MX Linux 21.1 is restarted and having to reconfigure the rotation of the HDMI monitor?

ARandR .

Code: Select all

sudo apt update ; sudo apt install arandr -y
____________________________

At least you can add this into "Session and Startup" - "Application Autostart" tab (add new with the bottom-left icon):

Any name , Any description, Command:

Code: Select all

sh -c 'xrandr --setprovideroutputsource NVIDIA-G0 modesetting'
Sometimes a few seconds of delay makes it work, i.e.

Code: Select all

sh -c 'sleep 3 ; xrandr --setprovideroutputsource NVIDIA-G0 modesetting'
_______________________________

... But it's best to first set all according to your taste and start ARandR , then "save as" .. it'll save as an executable .sh file..

Then full path of the file (as the command) into Autostart..

We'll go on.

I created a shortcut. For me, it became more practical. Unfortunately, it doesn't work automatically, without tricks.

Code: Select all

$ sudo vim /usr/share/applications/nvidia-hdmi.desktop

Exec=sh -c "xrandr --setprovideroutputsource NVIDIA-G0 modesetting; xrandr --auto"
