Wouldnt it just be easier to disable the intel onboard graphics in your BIOS and configure your system for use with 1 graphics card, your Nvidia one?

Hello, I've tampered with a somewhat "unique" problem related with white screen and figured I wanted to share this solution with you. This is a great pack and I was heartbroken when I couldn't get it running at first. Luckily I was able to solve it relatively easy, but for others it might not be so obvious. First of all I am not running any desktop suite. I am running a window manager called Awesome which lead to some problems with drawing java gui detail. Symptom: The loader itself is all white and launcher log shows nothing and you are perhaps running Awesome WM or DWM. Solution: Trick JVM into believing you are running another VM. $ wmname LG3D Search your package managers repositories for wmname or download here: http://tools.suckless.org/wmname Right after solving this I ran into another problem which might be obvious to experienced users but again something that wasn't in the FAQ so I'm gonna post it here as well. Symptom: The loader is displayed correctly but after logging in window is white and errors mentioning "xrandr" in stdout. Solution: You have multiple monitors connected. In my case I had TV-out (even though it was disabled!!) but still managed to bug java up. I yanked the hdmi-cable and it started fine! I'm sorry if this is breaking any rules. Feel free to remove this post and add the info to the sticky if you wish. After battling with this for an hour I wanted to share this solution if someone will run into the same problem.
