Hello,
Here some feedback:
Linux Sappho 4.7.2-201.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Aug 26 15:58:40 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
lspci
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06)
3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107M [GeForce GTX 960M] (rev a2)
lsmod
video 40960 3 i915,msi_wmi,nouveau
When I boot, I also use:
nomodeset vga=normal
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1920 x 1080, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1920x1080 0.00*
/sys/class/backlight
is empty
None of the fn key works
I also try to run:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-352.63.run
but I get an error:
The build up seems OK, but
