I’ve been having trouble i9 13980HX with Linux Mint kernels and not sure why. Ryzen 7945 HX works with both Debian 12 and Linux Mint using xanmod kernel.
Here is a list of BIOS options with 13980HX
ErP
Intel Virtualization Technology
Intel AES-NI
VT-d
Intel laptop also has a MUX switch in the BIOS which might be the problem
labeled - NV DDS function
Dynamic: During POST, the internal display panel will switch to igpu. And after entering the OS, the internal display switch will be controlled by the NV control panel.
dGPU only: Internal display panel will switch to discrete GPU
I’m using custom ISO installer with Nvidia Driver already installed.
Debian 12 only works in dGPU mode while Linux Mint gets a kernel Panic no matter what I do.
I also get
error out of memory
when trying to boot Linux Mint with i9 13980HX with xanmod kernel or any other kernel.
