Antonin's questions

I haven't found a thread on this specific issue :

My DNS resolution can be very long on linux. Generaly after a while using it (after 3/4h uptime).

• I am using a specific DNS for specific domains : kube.toto and toto. This DNS can be slow.
• For all other websites, I should be using the default dns (from my local network) : this dns resolver is fast.

Here is a copy of my /etc/resolv.conf (automatically generated, it is a symlink) : a different way,

 [... comments]
 nameserver 127.0.0.53
 search kube.toto toto

It seems like the dns resolver proxy 127.0.0.53 tries to reach the vpn dns resolver even for names it should not...

If anyone has a solution.

Hi I am trying to use Ubuntu-Prime for ubuntu 18 on an asus laptop with 2 GPU (intel & nvidia).

I found the power consumption of the computer to be way too high when I reboot with only the intel GPU (using prime-select intel or using nvidia-settings).

I found that the nouveau driver was loaded despite normally not used:

$ gpu-manager | grep nouveau
Is nouveau loaded? yes
Is nouveau blacklisted? yes
Skipping "/dev/dri/card1", driven by "nouveau"
Skipping "/dev/dri/card1", driven by "nouveau"
Found "/dev/dri/card1", driven by "nouveau"
Skipping "/dev/dri/card1", driven by "nouveau"

I tried to blacklist it and also have a kernel startup option to prevent nouveau from being loaded yet it still loads. This seems very un-linuxy to me.
