Video Driver for Intel UHD 750

Help
1

Hi all,

I recently bought a new machine with Intel i7-11700 (apparently all the GPUs are so expensive these days so I have to rely on its integrated video card UHD 750). Even if with the the latest kernel I cannot get the UHD 750 work (means no gnome/KDE and no high resolution at all).

The kernel I am using is 5.11 and I have

services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "intel" ];

Would like to get some advice on what to try next - maybe any specific kernel parameters?

Really appreciate the help!

Apparently this reddit post has the right solution.

For anyone who runs into this problem, just make sure you have

boot.kernelParams = [ "i915.force_probe=4c8a" ];
boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_5_11;
