Geforce RTX30 mobile series does not recognize second monitor in Ubuntu 20.04

Graphics / Linux Linux

Hello,

in my laptop (MSI GP66 Leopard), which is equipped with a RTX3060, when I try to use an external monitor using the HDMI output, it is not recognized. Apparently, Ubuntu is using v460 drivers, and I’m pretty sure the secure boot is disabled. In Windows 10, the second monitor works perfectly.

Any ideas about how to solve it.

Many thanks

Hi

In file /etc/default/grub, I modified GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX option to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“pci=realloc”
The second monitor is still not detected.

Thanks

The driver seems to be blacklisted currently, please run
sudo prime-select nvidia

After running that command, I got “Info: the nvidia profile is already set”

Please post the output of

grep nvidia /etc/modprobe.d/* /lib/modprobe.d/*

/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf:blacklist nvidiafb

Please delete

then run
sudo update-initramfs -u
and reboot.

Thank you very much for your help

Hello good morning, something similar happens to me, I have had some problems with the drivers that came with the ubuntu 20.04 kernel so I had to update my kernel to 5.15.0-051500-generic, my log file is as follows:
nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (110.9 KB)

The kernel headers package of that kernel is incompatible with 20.04 so the nvidia driver can’t be built. Please try the liquorix ppa instead:
