Hi,
Since I upgraded the drm drivers about a week ago I=E2=80=99ve been =
having issues. Either I can get XFCE performing correctly with the Intel =
GPU or suspend but not both. I was able to roll back to and older =
Current version 1600004 and get old versions of the DRM drivers =
installed which get it working. Basically it was been about a week of =
painful trial and error working out what is going on.
1. XFCE is unusably slow when switching to laptop only screen. It works = perfectly when using an external screen. Being a hybrid graphics laptop = I=E2=80=99m assuming the Intel drivers aren=E2=80=99t working and the =
Nvidia is working perfectly fine.
2. If using XFCE suspend no longer works.=20
Curiously it seem to work ok on KDE Plasma 6.=20
I=E2=80=99m currently running Current with drm-66-kmod and the =
equivalent Nvidia drivers. Curiously installing older versions of the =
Nvidia drivers will get XFCE performing better however it then breaks = suspend. I=E2=80=99m suspecting something is going wrong with the =
switchover from Nvidia to intel drivers. Quite often when you disconnect =
the external screen you get a black screen on the laptop where the mouse = still works but nothing else. I=E2=80=99ve had this before when hybrid = graphics mode is not working correctly. If I plug in the and disconnect =
the external screen it tends to work the second time. This wasn=E2=80=99t = happening before.
Before updating the DRM drivers it was working very well with XFCE with = suspend working most of the time.
Is there a way I can work out what is actually failing. I=E2=80=99ve =
looked in /var/log/messages but so far haven=E2=80=99t found any errors =
that would give any idea of what=E2=80=99s going on.
