Hello,
I installed Arch (3.10.5-1-ARCH) on an HP Envy 14 a few weeks ago. I've been using the integrated Intel Chipset with xf86-video-intel, but I'd like to start using the ATI Radeon 5650 as well with xf86-video-ati.
My current setup: My system boots to the console. Radeon is blacklisted, so I modprobe it manually. I run
Code:
sudo echo DDIS > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switchitcheroo
The system hangs for a second and then my screen goes dark but the system is still working. I can get screen output back by echo DIGD to vgaswitcheroo/switch. My brightness keys don't help, and I've screwed around a bit in /sys/class/backlight but it hasn't helped.
Any suggestions? Logs and stuff below, let me know what else is helpful. Thanks!
