> That's just a cosmetic bug in the Settings app when two GPUs are present. It incorrectly lists one of them twice.
My apologies, I probably didn't write my comments clearly. The issue I was trying to highlight wasn't that the GPU was listed twice in the Graphics field here. Instead, I wanted to say that – under the older NVIDIA 535 and 550.67 drivers in Wayland – this field read "Mesa Intel HD Graphics" with no mention of "NVIDIA", which is the correct behaviour: https://i.imgur.com/ezCIwOa.png However, when I switched to the newest NVIDIA 550.107.02 drivers (all else being the same), the Graphics field read "NVIDIA GeForce" with no mention of "Mesa Intel", which means that only the NVIDIA GPU is being used, incorrectly so: https://i.imgur.com/5MpmGMJ.png > Also check the .desktop files of affected apps to see if they contain a line asking to be run on the discrete GPU by default. I was using the Terminal to launch the affected libadwaita apps (gnome-sound-recorder or gnome-text-editor for example), like in my original screenshot: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/748407447/Screenshot%20from%202024-09-10%2020-27-41.png As a result, I can confirm that the .desktop file isn't the source of the issue. > Try running: switcherooctl I've attached the Terminal output after running switcherooctl here. Interestingly, the output was the same when I ran it with the NVIDIA 535 and 550.107.02 drivers on Wayland. Namely, that "Intel" was the default in both cases, even when the Settings > About "Graphics" field showed the NVIDIA as the GPU being used with the 550.107.02 drivers on Wayland. > So the only real issue now is; why would GNOME default to launching apps on the discrete GPU instead of the integrated GPU? I'm assuming that this behaviour changed with the latest NVIDIA 550.107.02 update because it now pulls in libnvidia-egl-wayland1 (as well as some other i386 support packages), which you can see in this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/PjLkkKi.png I'm suspecting that the libnvidia-egl-wayland1 package is the ultimate source of this issue. ** Attachment added: "switcherooctl.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/2080282/+attachment/5816285/+files/switcherooctl.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2080282 Title: Apps run on the discrete Nvidia GPU by default instead of the Intel integrated GPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/2080282/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
