Force Remix OS to open on GPU monitor - Remix OS for PC

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone could help me, I have Remix OS installed onto my PC HDD however whenever I boot into it, it forces itself onto the monitor that is attached to my internal GPU. I have my main monitor connected to my GPU however which is an AMD HD7950 3GB edition. I was wondering if there was any way to force Remix OS to boot onto the AMD powered monitor instead of the iGPU powered one through the config file or anything.
Thanks in advance to anyone with any suggestions.

Try with add this parameter on grub, i915.modest=0 radeon.modeset=1

Acer C720P - Remix OS - Wildly impressed.

First the issues. I was not able to figure out how to set it up to where I can install Remix OS on my chromebook's SSD instead of having to use a USB stick. I also wasn't able to figure out why running the ISO installer tool that comes with the most recent download (yesterday) didn't work. I used it on a 32GB PNY USB flash drive, but after going into the legacy boot menu on my Chromebook, and selecting my USB stick to boot from, it was not able to find an operating system. Instead, I used Linux Live USB Creator (LiLi). I manually selected the Remix OS ISO that came with the download, and installed it to my USB stick. My chromebook recognized it immediately as a bootable OS. It even gave me the options for guest mode, and write mode. I chose write mode. The only downside to this is not being able to choose how large the partitions should be. Either way, it installed successfully.
The awesome parts. It recognized and works uniformly with my chromebook's touch screen and touch pad. Zero issues. It even recognizes some touch-pad short cuts like two-finger scrolling, etc. It doesn't recognize some of my keys on the keyboard itself, like volume up/down, and brightness up/down, but this is easily managed at the task bar. I also tested Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes to see if games would be sluggish running on a USB stick. I don't know about all games, but that one in particular ran as though it was on my Nexus 7. Super smoothly, with no issues. Aside from it being a bit sluggish running apps for the first time, (it frequently asked if I wanted to wait, or to force close Facebook and others - hitting wait works), I am very impressed with the experience. It's everything I could hope for in a beta android desktop OS! :good: :good:
PS, I'm actually running it right now as I type this.
I got it to install on my Acer R14 with a triple boot, windows 10, ubuntu, remix os. If you use universal usb installer and install directly to a NTFS partition on your hard drive you can use RMXtools to make the data .img whatever size you want. I did it for 50GB and have installed alot of apps and i still have 48GB left. I really like this OS.
Well I tried ubuntu on my chromebook for a while, but wasn't feeling it. I would have to put it on in order to install Remix OS to a hard drive no?
No just use universal usb installer and select non-linux installation and install directly to your ntfs drive. The expand the data file with RMXTools to whatever size you want.

Make your usb bootable with Rufus.

Is it possible to boot a linux live usb and install remix os on the ssd with Gnome disks?
There has got to be some variation in components with revisions of the C720P, because no OS I have tried to boot on mine has supported the mouse other than Gallium. If I install the GalliumOS kernel on Debian it works fine, but no idea how I would do that with Android. Your touchpad really just worked huh? Not for me, not in the version of RemixOS I downloaded from the Jide site last night, nor in the hacked edition or whatever it's called here on XDA.
My laptop Asus X8AIJ very old since 2005.....
settup on HDD,,,non USB
Win10 64bit + Remix os 2.0.0.205 with rooted ,,,,very good...but i can not settup display for as well

Couldn't boot Remix OS couldn't boot / save setting when ran from HDD on HP 14 Notebo

Recently, I just installed Remix OS on my USB and it worked fine. Because of my USB port are bit unstable, I just trying to install Remix OS on my HDD (hd0,7). But, when trying to boot from Windows Boot Loader. It shows "minimal BASH-like command - - -" , i found a solution for this and bring me to the Remix Mode Options (Resident/Guest). I tried to boot Remix from any options but it only shows and stop at blinking kernel messages and error message
"intel_powerclamp: Intel powerclamp does not run on family 28 model 43
intel_rapl : driver does not support cpu family 28 model 43"
When booting from USB, it doesn't matter and it can continue booting to Remix, but it won't continue boot when ran from HDD from my HP 14 Notebook PC.
I have alternative by using my Ubuntu's Grub legacy and succesfully boot. but, it won't save any settings.
Please help me to resolve my problem.
Here's my Laptop Specifications:
CPU: AMD-A8 6410 2.0GHz
GPU: Onboard
RAM: 2GB, 1.71GB usable
Boot Mode: Legacy, Secure boot: OFF
Installed OSes: Windows 7, Windows 10, Ubuntu, Remix OS(unbootable).
N. B: sorry, bad english. I'm javanese

It seems you're booting into guest mode since nothing is being saved. How do you boot into Remix OS? I have an HP laptop too and press F9 as the laptop boots which then allows me to boot using the EFI file. That's the only way I can boot into it as the dual-boot screen doesn't appear automatically. You have quite a bit of software installed for a machine with only 2GB of RAM in total but I don't think that's your problem. Have you installed it onto a separate partition or installed it into the Windows drive in a folder? I made a new partition of 32GB, gave it a random letter for the drive, and it boots fine to that as long as I press F9 immediately on boot (repeatedly) until the boot loader menu comes up and I choose the EFI file to boot from, and eventually after that using grub.
All HP machines have the same F9 function key which will pull up the boot menu. Try that and see if you have the option to boot from EFI or EFIx64 depending on your system. I don't know why it's not saving anything from your sessions unless it is a lack of RAM/virtual memory space. I wasn't even aware there was a guest mode if you installed to hdd (so maybe there isn't). You could try to produce a logcat of what is happening as you boot and especially as you shut down to find out why it's not holding anything from your sessions in memory. I have 8GB of RAM in my laptop but as far as I know Remix OS only gets to use a fraction of that (about 2GB) so if you're only using a 2GB RAM in total laptop with several OS already installed on it you were bound to hit problems sooner or later as you add more, but whether that's related to your current problem I wouldn't know.
Well, I guess it was my fault because of using Linux-created Partition more than using Windows one. Maybe I'll try using windows-created partition, Thanks for your reply.
EDIT: It doesn't work, I tried to install it on 9 Laptops with 7 Models for 5 Manufactures (My friends are Remix Anthusiast you know) and only 2 Models have same problem with me. My Conclusion is that my Laptop model aren't supported yet to boot RemixOS from HDD.

Will Running Remix OS decrease the power consumption on a standard desktop

I run a desktop with fairly simple config and a 450W Power supply
I dualboot windows (installed on HardDisk)& Remix OS(installed on Flash Drive)
If i boot the machine with remix OS from a flash drive , will the power consumption be low?

Perhaps, but not necessarily.
It also depends on how well Remix OS supports your hardware.
450W should be more than enough, especially if your config isn't demanding. However I think that if the box shows 450W it's more likely that you actually have ~360W, due to general inefficiencies of power supplies.
I personally have a 400W supply (in reality, 320W), and my setup, while in total would not be the simplest as I have 4 hard drives installed (and I would have put more had there been space), when running I only connect 1-2 hard drives, so it is rather simple (no dedicated GPU yet, as I do not play any video games, nor am I going to).
And that is not true dualbooting, if you are changing the boot device via the BIOS.
I run a number of Linux distros (and sometimes also Remix OS), and my setup is not a true multiboot setup either, as OS has it's own copy of the bootloader installed on the same hard drive as itself.
Thanks
so , if i run windows and Remix on same drive ,its dualbooting?

Yes, and with the same bootloader (either GRUB or Windows's bootloader).
You'll have to edit the bootloader's configuration for that.
There are threads on this subforum which can help you with that.

CPU problem with 1 core always work at 100% performance

Hi!
I have a Dell Inspiron 15 7559 laptop with Intel Core i5 6300HQ CPU, Intel HD Graphics 530 and nVidia Geforce GTX 960M GPU.
I tried some Remix OS install on hard drive and have a cpu problem: 1 cpu core with 100% load, which make total cpu load always greater than 25%. And i can't shutdown or restart the computer too.
So i tried Phoenix OS too. Phoenix OS don't make my CPU load > 25% all the time, but every time i try to restart or shutdown computer, the problem happen.
I did some research and found this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remix-os-updated-to-kernel-android-x86-t3596789. Maybe replacing kernel can fix the problem. With that idea, i was trying to replace the kernel of Remix OS => result: cpu problem gone, can shutdown, restart computer normally but wifi not work. Open setting, in OpenGL driver version, i notice the "GL Renderer" change to "Gallium...", not "Intel Skylake.... " anymore.
After that, i tried the modify Remix OS in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remixosx64-uefi-legacy-xposed-supersu-t3525993. Can boot but only show wallpaper and cursor, nothing else. Do some experiment, then i decide to replace "egl" folder in "lib" and "lib64" folder inside "system.img" with folder in the original Remix OS iso. Okay, the system finally working, but cpu problem happen again. Open setting, both kernel and Mesa driver updated to newer version but that not fix the cpu problem.
Now i'm out of idea. Anybody, please help! :crying::crying::crying:
