You'd still need PRIME and specify "--setprovideroutputsource Intel nouveau" to get eDP working in that configuration, but even if this doesn't work, you could at least verify the output routing.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
