Over nemesis

I have the DEPUTY P60 notebook: MSN: 40086127 Deputy P60 - MD62591 Product: NP50RND1   I am wondering how I could unlock all settings in the BIOS, specifically I am searching for settings that would change the GPU that is used by default. Right now the computer uses the integrated GPU on boot/startup, but I need the computer to always use the discrete GPU (RTX 4060) by default. I am using Linux and I have a problem where Linux cannot change to the discrete GPU because of a ACPI error which I have already made a thread about here, so changing what GPU is used by default should fix that.    Link to the other thread about the ACPI error I am getting: https://community.medion.com/t5/ERAZER-Gaming/Erazer-Deputy-P60-ACPI-BIOS-Error-bug-Could-not-resolve-symbol/m-p/177448#M4830 I have looked at one way of unlocking all settings in the BIOS, which involves accessing the UEFI shell and changing a variable by using "offset" values. Here are some webpages about that method which has been successfully been used on older Erazer Notebooks:  Guide link: https://schnoog.eu/hobbies/erazer-crawler-e25-linux-with-bios-hacking https://github.com/eebssk1/clevo-insyde-uefi-settings-show-all   But when following the guide from the "guide link", I cannot find this setting in the BIOS.efi file: 0xE3CD2 Setting: Setup Menu Insyde Full Show, Variable: 0x212..... 0xE3CE3 Option: Hide, Value: 0x0 .... 0xE3CEA Option: Show, Value: 0x1 ....  I searched the file which is a text file of the SetupUtility body which has been extracted from the official BIOS update zip folder for Deputy P60. It can be found here: https://www.medion.com/au/service/product-detail/30037831   But the SetupUtility body of this BIOS does not contain anything regarding "Setup menu Full show" or anything along those lines.   So this is how far I have come in this, I hope that someone else knows a fix to this problem which originally is an error which stops me from using my discrete GPU in Linux, but now is an issue of not being able to change what GPU is used in BIOS.   Any help is appreciated. ...

Erazer Deputy P60 MD62591   I get two errors when starting Arch Linux. I suspect that these errors are Firmware/BIOS related, and that the symbols the system is trying to resolve are linked with the Nvidia discrete GPU.   This issue can probably only be fixed by Medion engineers by releasing a new BIOS update with these bugs fixed.   Here are the two errors i receive when starting Arch Linux:   [0.260005] ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_SB.PC00.MHBRT], AE NOT FOUND (20240827/psargs-332) [0.260052] ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_SB.PTID.PBAR], AE NOT FOUND (20240827/dsfield-500)   When force loading nvidia hooks at system boot, the system will not boot any further after getting the errors. The system will be stuck at these errors permanently. When not forcing Nvidia hooks at system boot, the system will boot normally, but the discrete GPU (RTX 4060) will not be available for use at all.   From what I understand these bugs can be easily fixed by Medion engineers. I have already updated the Bios to the newest version available. So I hope Medion will fix these bugs. According to the internet they should be very easily fixed, and they are only present here because of lazy and improper coding of the BIOS/Firmware. ... Meer weergeven
