Hello there i can't enable R5 m330 gpu. İntel hd 5500 is slow and with lag therefore i want to use r5 m330 amd gpu but i cant.
My notebook is Lenovo g50-80 i5-5200 4 cpu 4gb ram and R5 m330 2gb gpu.
How can i enable R5 m330?

In case you see both Intel HD 5500 and R5 m330 discrete GPU are active,
meaning that ls /dev/dri gives ./card0 ./card1
you will need to disable i915 with grub cmdline:

i915.blacklist=yes

or

modprobe.blacklist=i915

The entry to disable i915 needs to be added to "linux" line in Phoenix OS menuentry,
before editing grub.cfg permanently I would suggest to try editing the line only temporarily
if that is possible on Phoenix OS

Please let me know if it works, as I never tried, tested or used Phoenix OS.
