I'd like to blacklist a couple of modules, namely drm
, drm_kms_helper
, i2c_algo_bit
and i915
to forbid my integrated Intel GPU to be used, but to use my Nvidia MXM card instead.
I inserted the following lines into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf:
blacklist i915
blacklist drm
blacklist drm_kms_helper
blacklist i2c_algo_bit
Despite the above right after rebooting my laptop and typing lsmod I can see these modules loaded.
Why does my blacklist get utterly disrespected and what can I do about it?
