Re: Weird graphics issue
Did you reboot after making changes to the applet? I didn't make any changes to the applet, I only used the Driver Manager to start using the nouveau driver instead of the NVIDIA driver and then I rebooted. But System Info says my graphics card is Intel but I have an NVIDIA applet in my system tray...

Re: Weird graphics issue
If it happens when returning from suspend then, yes, it is probably the same problem. That's why I wanted to know when it was happening. I wanted to make sure it was not a different problem that we should investigate. Yes, it both happens when returning from suspend, and I just experienced it right...

Re: Weird graphics issue
Even when using the latest kernel or NVIDIA drivers the issues I described still occur. But I just started using the open source nouveau display driver and that actually seemed to have solved the problem.

Re: Weird graphics issue
This is another issue which only happens when returning from suspend? Yes, but something tells me it's the same problem It is possible newer drivers, either Nvidia or Intel from the kernel, may help with these issues. https://i.ibb.co/kgGTGzw/Screenshot-from-2021-09-27-07-31-08.png I don't know why...

Connecting USB storage while file manager is running

Update manager often installs kernel updates. Why doesn't this install the latest kernel?

Re: Weird graphics issue
Thanks. I thought it may have something to do with the graphics drivers. A number of people with 8th-gen Intel processors have found a newer kernel than the 5.4 is a better match for their hardware. The 5.11 kernel is available in Update Manager if you would like to give it a try. Let us know if you...

Re: [SOLVED] ACPI errors and graphics card drivers issues
If I do that, my system doesn't boot at all anymore. It shows a black screen with a cursor just after the Mint logo appears. I had to re-enable "Secure Boot" (which I disabled to get the NVIDIA driver to work) to get my system to boot, remove the "xorg.conf" file and disable Secu...

Re: ACPI BIOS Error during boot
What other options are available for that 'Advanced Graphics - DVMT Pre-Allocated' setting? A 64M allocation usually corresponds to a 'hybrid' arrangement in which both onboard and separate GPU are involved, but I have to admit that I'm very uncertain about this Asus setup. The only other option av...
