Manjaro no longer detects my intel igpu monitor

Support Graphics & Display
1

I have triple monitors, 2 are connected to the nVidia GPU and they work flawlessly now, but my igpu monitor won’t work.
At the fresh installation, the intel gpu worked and the nvidia didn’t but i kept missing around with mhwd and tried to install a couple of drivers to get my nvidia gpu to work until it finally did, but now my intel gpu display won’t work.

here are some specs:

Hi,

you are using

driver: nvidia

that means it is the proprietary driver of nvidia. With this driver you can only use nvidia gpus. If you want to use the intel gpu also, then you have to stick with the free driver.
nouveau is for example the reverse-engineered open source driver.

3

how about the hybrid drivers, aren’t these supposed to work?
i have also tried removing the nvidia driver and only left intel’s video-linux but the igpu didn’t work neither the nvidia and i had to fix it through tty.

4

sure they work with prime, but it will offload gpu tasks to the nvidia one in specific applications and you have to use the intel driver for your screens. nvidia card screen outputs will not work.

5

Could you post the output of:

xrandr --listproviders

Have look also here: PRIME - ArchWiki

6

Did you change in the UEFI from PCIE to IGD or similar?

7

here is my xrandr result:

[hegz@hegzaro ~]$ xrandr --listproviders
Providers: number : 1
Provider 0: id: 0x1b8 cap: 0x1, Source Output crtcs: 4 outputs: 4 associated providers: 0 name:NVIDIA-0

and yeah i have it set to IGPU instead of the PCI in my UEFI bios settings.
