I'm using nouveau (replacing nvidia blob). I'm quite happy with it but I've one trouble I don't know where to start to dig.
The brightness & dim display is working on the laptop. Also placing lappy screen in suspend mode work. I've a HP ZR2240w external monitor connected to the DisplayPort monitor in clone mode.
The external monitor is never suspended ( was working before with nvidia blob ). I would like to make Geeko a bit more greener and suspend to monitor.
Has anyone an idea where to start to dig ?
From my experience using Nvidia video products, the nouveau drivers have problems in certain areas. I usually find I have to download the *.run driver files from Nvidia and install them in place of the nouveau ones. In my case the major problem was that the nouveau driver would not re-start after sleep/hibernate on a single monitor system. Also be aware that laptops in general have more problems of this type than do desktops. Not sure why that is.
