How to switch which graphics card is used for video output
I have two graphics cards: A GTX 1070 Ti and a Quadro K620. I need to use the Quadro for my monitor output so the more powerful 1070 can be devoted to computation. Whenever I plug a monitor into the Quadro, it just stays black, and my main monitor goes black two. I don't want to use dual monitors.
I'm running Ubuntu 18.04
drivers nvidia 18.04 monitor
