Re: Laptop's display not visible in setting
Thank you stan I investigated a bit more and the laptop's screen is on but black. If I change to a tty using CTRL + ALT + Fn, it will show in the laptop's screen. It's only the graphical environment that does not show up. Nvidia is installed and updated. I tested that already. The Nvidia configuration GUI only sees the external monitor. I'll send the information about the commands in a little while. I might need to reinstall f29 today after all, as I cannot make this work and tomorrow I have to leave for a work trip and need my laptop working.

I don't have any direct knowledge of this problem, but it sounds like the built in monitor is not being recognized on boot. You could look at the last boot in the journal using journalctl -b in a terminal to see what happens to the built in monitor during boot. Type /drm and hit enter to take you to the video setup. Report any error back here. Is it possible that you are missing the driver for the built-in graphics? This would especially apply if the graphics are nvidia and using the nvidia proprietary driver. Maybe you need to set up the rpmfusion repositories to get the new drivers, then do a system update. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
