Graphics / Linux Linux

Hi, I have installed ParrotOS HOME on HP ZBOOK G8 with nvidia RTX A2000 on board.

I Followed the official guide without success: https://parrotsec.org/docs/configuration/nvidia-drivers

When running lspci -nnv I get this:

01:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation GA107GLM [RTX A2000 Mobile] [10de:25b8] (rev ff) (prog-if ff)
	!!! Unknown header type 7f
	Kernel modules: nvidia

How can i make my latptop use the nvidia gpu?
Can you help me to troubleshoot this?

Now the laptop is running with the integrated GPU: Mesa Intel UHD Graphics (TGL GT1)

Actual Version of Parrot:

Release 5.2 (Electro Ara) 64-bit
Kernel Linux 6.0.0-12parrot1-amd64 x86_64

Thanks in advance!

The zbook series had a bios bug so the nvidia gpu were always turned off (header 7f). Pleas check your bios version and update it (iirc, version1.10 needed).

Not yet tried, sadly the PC is of the Company and I can’t update the BIOS because of the password
