How i can install vga drivers

hi
my os is fedora 30 xfce and my laptop is n5110
how i can install vga drivers and work together correctly
i have intel vga and nividia vga please help me to solve this problem

which driver do you want to use as primary, and could you tell us who made the laptop, hp, compaq, toshiba, or some other company? The model number is helpful, but to know what kind of drivers you need, the manufacturer of the laptop would also be helpful.

install rpmfusion repos and check this all commants in this post on facebook .

But NVIDIA will become the default VGA.

dell inspiron n5110 and i have 2 vga 1-nividia GF108M [Geforce GT 525M] and 2-intel Intel HD Graphics, HD Graphics 3000
