Dear Nvidia-team,
I have a MacbookPro 2015 with ElementaryOS on an thunderbolt jetdrive and a Razor Core X with RTX3070 installed on another thunderbolt port. I want to use a 5k Monitor via DP->thunderbolt cable. I tried a lot to install the latest NVIDIA driver 455 using the NVIDIA installer script, apt, and also Ubuntu ‘additional driver’ software. Still the driver doesn’t work.
After reboot when the eGPU is connected from the beginning to the thunderbolt port the internal screen stays black. When booting without the eGPU connected, I can boot normally. When connecting the eGPU I get:
dmesg | grep -i nvidia

I have followed some webpages to get rid of the nouveau, but without success.
Hopefully the bug report helps you understand what is the problem.
All the best,
