That's correct. > Unfortunately, no. The ASUS TUF Gaming laptop may need it to run the display. I suspect that because long ago the nvidia hardware got reset and the system could not recover from that cleanly. The result was a computer with dead screen but system that was still alive. If I remove nouveau and my screen gets disabled, I would have very hard time getting back on track as I don't have another computer I could use to download an Ubuntu Live CD, burn it to an USB, boot this computer and then fix the configuration to make it bootable. That's a bit unusual for an A+N design. The APU usually drives the eDP panel. Sometimes there is a mux that lets you change it to the discrete GPU dynamically, but the default position is still supposed to be APU. Rather than making a permanent change; how about if you just turn on the GRUB menu and change it on your kernel command line for one boot? Even if it doesn't boot up and has a black screen as you're worried about you can reboot the machine and the journal from the previous boot will show if this issue occurred or not. I strongly feel this is a bug in nouveau that isn't fixed in the kernel you're running. Another option is to try the OEM-6.11 or HWE-6.11 kernels instead. You can install them side-by-side and configure GRUB to let you pick one at bootup. Then you can see if it happens on the newer kernel or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2098668 Title: nouveau crashes when fwupd requests DPCD reads on drm_dp_auxN To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/+bug/2098668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
