HP te01-1011 not booting with new GPU installed

New development, if I time it right, the gpu fans go to 100, and the PC boots, but the GPU isn't detected in Linux

Linux may find the built in video before it sees the GPU

I have several Ubuntu system running BOINC apps for gridcoins.  I install ubuntu desktop with at least one of the GPUs and for some of the (really older) motherboards I need to disable internal video with a jumper or specify to use PCIe first.  Once one of the NVidia is recognized then I can add the others.  Here is one system.

some of these are now running windows 11 as I did the free upgrade from7 to 11 when I heard that microsoft was going to stop the free upgrade  All I did was install win11 and use the OEM serial number from windows 7 to activate.

Ye, that's pretty good stuff imo, I was thinking about selling this thing and buying a Dell r730XD, I'm annoyed with all this proprietary crap lol. I don't want to have to spend 150 dollars on a proprietary PSU, when I can spend 40 in a better one from someone else. Plus, the r730XD is faster for cheaper

Some of the newer RTX boards like the RTX-4060 only use 300 watts.  You might try selling the 2060

Windows 12 is coming out later this year, you might want to hold off till then.

Yeah, I was tempted to sell, but the GPU is the centerpiece of my jellyfin server, as I have a lot of old clients, so transcoding everything is required. Plus, I actually think windows 12 might drop the value of the 1011, as it's gonna be seen as older.
