2 years ago Hello there, the second issue you describe was introduced since dynamic Nvidia GPU detection was added because the PCI Bus ID isn't 01:00:00 on all laptop models out there so you need to switch to hybrid first, restart and then Nvidia mode.
Greetings.

Yeah I read about that, it's not a problem, i only use hybrid mode because i need both GPUs to drive my external monitor and laptop monitor no need for nvidia mode but thanks for the reply
Basic info first
now to the issue: my laptop has a power led that is white when nvidia gpu is off and orange when it's powered on and it's controlled by the BIOS.
when in integrated mode it really turns my nvidia gpu off, led goes white and is fine, but when in hybrid mode it turns the dGPU on and the led goes orange but i can't get display out of my laptop, but when on nvidia mode it does work but i only have image on my external monitor. Is this a limitation from linux or it is possible to fix this in order to have it working "as intended" (like optimus on windows)
second issue: cant switch from integrated to nvidia directly, it errors out saying no nvidia gpu is available but i was reading on this and it's because the gpu wasn't powered on on the last shutdown, possibily can't get fixed but i can live with it.
