Summary | 0005652: nvidia-settings can't open such that we can't change Xorg to nvidia | ||||
Description | uname -a my laptop is ASUS X550VX, it contain two graphic card nvidia and intel. Intel® Core™ i7 6700HQ Processor I just install nvidia drivers as step by step from this site. Now,my nvidia GPU is work, but I can't change from intel to nvidia by nvidia-settings.just like this (*qiancan-chen@kali:~$ nvidia-settings ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system*) I guess this problem maybe have some relationship with "software-properties-gtk problem". (qiancan-chen@kali:~$ software-properties-gtk Um...NO UbuntuDrivers... I give some files about errors, first one about when I type "apt install -y ocl-icd-libopencl1 nvidia-driver nvidia-cuda-toolkit" in terminal when install finish. second one about software-properties-gtk in terminal. | ||||

I think it can work from ubuntu source cause ubuntu driver fix some file from original nvidia driver. I test the ubuntu driver in ubuntu system, using ppa install nvidia driver, nvdia-setting is working. so may be we fix software-properties-gtk, and install ubuntu driver, the problem will be solved. https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages. |

i have same problem what is the fix for this also did you solved this problem? |

You probably have an Optimus laptop. NVIDIA card cannot use the screen directly on Linux because there is no hybrid graphics support from NVIDIA for us. The solution is to use Prime (from Ubuntu) or Bumblebee: https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee Bumblebee is better for power management, it switches off NVIDIA card while it is not being used. When you want to use it (for a game, for example) you need to run it vía optirun or primusrun this way: $ optirun nvidia-settings -c :8 Applications that don't use screen (like CUDA-enabled ones or Hashcat) do not need this aproximation. |

pkreuzt can you please send me a good guide for it? because of i tryed many tutorials but all of them messing up with the drivers |

edit: For the LightDM display manager: /etc/lightdm/display_setup.sh #!/bin/sh Make the script executable: chmod +x /etc/lightdm/display_setup.shNow configure lightdm to run the script by editing the [Seat:*] section in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf: /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf [Seat:*] Now reboot and your display manager should start. |
