From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I have both an igpu and dgpu, which means this should be easy, yeah?

Namely, Ryzen 9 7900 and RTX 4070ti.

But for the love of god I can't get any installation working correctly with this combo OOB.

I've tried Nix. I've tried Arch. I've tried Garuda. I've tried Endeavour. I've tried Pop! OS.

I've also tried Proxmox, Truenas Scale, and Unraid, Smart OS, and others.

But there's always something wrong with display.

Are you using the iGPU? Like, can you get away with disabling it in BIOS?

You can disable it explicitly, yes.

It should be possible to use it with the dgpu.

Edit: You can also prioritize using the iGPU over the dGPU in bios. Maybe that'd work, hmm.
