Unable to Boot | Hybrid Graphics | Intel and Radeon

[dark.developer]

Hi all,

I am new to Sabayon, I am not able to boot from the live DVD from my laptop i.e., HP Pavilion dv6, I think the problem could be the Hybrid Graphics i.e., Intel and Radeon.

Please help, as I really want to install it on my Laptop. Also, provide me with details as per how can I install Radeon graphics driver.


Thanks in advance! Cheers!

When you boot to the menu of the LiveDVD, press F5 and append xdriver=radeon to the end of the kernel boot line then hit Enter. If that doesn't work, try xdriver=intel instead.

Hi Fitzcarraldo,

Thanks for the reply, I tried both the options none of them seems to work!

I have a dv6 & xdriver=intel worked for me, i have never managed to get the radeon in this laptop working in any linux distro.
