/dev/dri not found after installing a GPU

[cagemaster]

Toay i just installed a GTX 1650S in my system for passing through to a VM (this is not working yet, but thats another problem... If someone wants to help me please contact me), but now when i try to use the iGPU with Plex it doesn't work. I tried running:

modprobe i915

followed by

chmod -R 777 /dev/dri

But i get an error saying /dev/dri does not exist. What happened here? Any help would be appriciated!

Yes! For over a year. I think the GPU boot order may be wrong but the unraid terminal is still on the same HDMI out as before.. the only things I’ve changed is turning on VT-d and putting in a GPU.

Is the iGPU the Primary Graphics Adapter in the BIOS? 

 

Installing the new GPU might have caused the BIOS to give preference to the PCIe GPU instead of the onboard/iGFX or however your BIOS designates the iGPU.

 

the /dev/dri drivers won't load on many many MBs unless the iGPU is the specified primary graphics adapter.

Thank you, this was the problem!
