wonder how to get this computer to run the desktop off the dedicated gpu so i can try the 4k stuff.

i tried it earlier but renoir screams and gives you like 12fps on cinnamon.

@icedquinn
Renoir screams as in it doesn't let you run the desktop off the dedicated gpu? Can't you just disable the integrated one from bios? Or are we talking about a laptop here?

@alyx its a laptop. i have no idea how to tell linux to run cinnamon with the dedi.

usually env DRI_PRIME=1 (something) will run a process on the dedi.

@icedquinn
You could probably uninstall AMD drivers, and it should default to nvidia.

I was looking a while back at this older reddit post that deals with switching graphics with an AMD/nvidia system. Might be useful.

@alyx uninstalling the amd drivers will 100% not work given both GPUs are AMD. :blobcatbath:

Oh... ok. Try looking over the reddit post. You might be able to adapt the instructions there, as they don't have you uninstall drivers.
