Hi QA:

=C2=A0I had = can to create the manual blacklist entry for nouveau. =C2=A0 I did this bec= ause I wanted to use the non-free driver.=C2=A0 This is also required if yo= u want to use the Intel HD internal graphics card with a Nvidia chip set as= a secondary card.

The first edit will disable nou= veau and verify by "lsmod | grep -i nouveau"

Manual edits required to get this workin= g.

1. Created blacklist entry, /etc/modprobe.d/bla= cklist=C2=ADnouveau.conf as shown below

# cat /etc= /modprobe.d/blacklist=C2=ADnouveau.conf

blacklist = nouveau

options nouveau modeset=3D0

2. kernel option used, nomodeset

Below = (lines below) if you want to use the Nvidia non-free driver support:

<= div>

3. Used Nvidia xconfig tool, nvidia=C2=ADxconfig

4. Edit the file manually to see what drivers were being = used , it should state: Drivers =E2=80=9Cnvidia=E2=80=9D

5. ** Special note, I have two separate video GPU cards and decided = to use individual heads, device1, device2

Now after booting, Nvidia drivers are working because the X server c= ame up. I noticed that

'num=C2=ADlock' was= off. Verification of X is as follows:

1. Verify w= hat is in proc, lsmod, dmesg messages

# cat /proc/= driver/nvidia/version

NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x8= 6_64 Kernel Module 352.30 Tue Jul 21 18:53:45 PDT 2015

GCC version: gcc version 4.8.3 20140106 (OpenMandriva Association) (Li= naro GCC 4.8=C2=AD2014.01)

This is the driver we w= anted, 352.30, installed from 'mcc'; manual edits required for the = blacklist

file creation. The installation needs to= create something. The Nvidia installer does create a file for

you using their manual installation method by executing the dr= iver installation <Nvidia-

driver.version>.run.

<= br>

2. Verify X log in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

<= div>3. Run Nvidia settings and Nvidia System Management Interface tool, nvi= dia=C2=ADsettings, a X tool,

and nvidia=C2=ADsmi, = System Management interface tool

Nvidia=C2=ADsmi, = reports the driver version match such as in proc/driver/nvidia/version and = reports the

GPU(s). GPU=C2=AD0, is the 960; GPU=C2= =AD1, is the 730 card. I want to run the 960 as the primary (a

physical connection to a 24in monitor).

PS, = I have used this in the past.=C2=A0 You can also try using "acpi_osi= =3DLinux" on the kernel command line.

This allows be to boot= with the Nvidia card as a primary video source with the Intel HD graphics = card disabled in BIOS.

I have found that the BIOS = is disabled and initfs still loads the i915 driver module
