Laptop Nvidia dGPU initialization issues
Hello there, folks! I’m here on behalf of a friend who’s having problems with initializing their dedicated GPU on a hybrid graphics laptop (an HP Victus 16-d0013dx, to be specific) with Bazzite.
I’ve worked with them on this but it seems the 3050 laptop dGPU they have doesn’t seem to be recognized by the system at all, even when supergfxctl is set to “hybrid” mode - they attempted to run Black Mesa but only got 5 FPS due to using the laptop’s iGPU.
Is there any way we could get the dGPU initialized and recognized by their Bazzite install?
Their nvidia-smi info is attached to this post if you need it.

From an earlier point, btw

NVIDIA GPU not being used (Bazzite 41 NVIDIA Edition)
I’ve been trying to benchmark games on Bazzite but for whatever reason, my RTX 3050 is just not being used. (Context: im using a laptop that has an Intel iGPU alongside the NVIDIA dGPU with Secure Boot enabled) I have SuperGFX and I’ve it set to Hybrid and the dGPU to always be active yet Steam will use the iGPU.
