Integrated GPU under Linux

[Astrino]

Hi,

I just bought new Omen 15-ce011nw with i7-7700HQ and GTX-1060 GPU.

It should have HD 630 Intel GPU in CPU. But when I've installed Linux (few distros tested) there is no Intel GPU card. I've searched many forums, and other users with this CPU has Intel card. Not me 😕

Under windows also I cant find Intel card at device manager under Graphics card subtree.

Anyone has the same problem? Maybe its normal behavior in HP Omen? Or its malfunction at CPU.

Could any Omen+Linux users post me their lspci or inxi -F output?

Thanks in advance.

Hello @Astrino

I have an earlier series 17 inch with an i7 7700 and GTX 1070.

Only the Nvidia card is enabled, no integrated graphics on these machines.

Hope that helps.

[Astrino]

Thanks, maybe its turned off by producer.

[Photoray002]

That is correct. It is physically setup at manufacture like this.

Hey!

I'm planning on buying the HP Omen x (17)

I would like to know what issues were you facing, so i can better judge which laptop  should I buy. My workload would be distributed between both Linux and Windows (with windows doing most of the work).

Best Regards

Aditya
