I have a weird problem where the monitor could not detect laptop but if i go to BIOS and change the graphics adapter to Integrated only the monitor worked and then if I changed that again to Switchable Graphics (Integrated and NVIDIA) it still worked. But when I turn off the monitor it won’t detect the laptop again and if I keep it powered on it will detect it. This problem persists when I first installed Fedora, if I connect the monitor to another laptop that has Windows 10 or Manjaro it will automatically detect it. Reinstalling NVIDIA driver won’t help switching to nouveou won’t help, besides the HDMI port is tied to integrated graphics not NVIDIA. Here is the system info.
