If not, please learn bash basics like cd, ls, cp, mv, etc. This guide also assumes you are already able to see and edit root owned files (via terminal or GUI options). More info on hybrid off loading mode that this setup uses, see point 9.
The only difference is that you don't have bumblebee so you don't have to disable it. If you already use video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-440xx-prime configuration, this guide is also for you. Manjaro by default installs bumblebee with hybrid GPUs and I assume you already switched to non-free drivers. For other Arch-based systems, skip mhwd part. This tutorial is meant to be used on MANJARO. Other display managers may work but you have to configure them manually, see this FAQ section: GitHub Askannz/optimus-managerĪ Linux program to handle GPU switching on Optimus laptops. Supported display managers are : SDDM (Manjaro KDE), LightDM (Manjaro XFCE), GDM (Manjaro Gnome). Only X session is supported (no Wayland). If you reboot system before everything is in order, your graphical session may not boot successfully. It’s not enough to just install the package and some manual configuration is needed. So if you have AMD-Nvidia, stop reading futher as the guide below is only for Intel-Nvidia and you don't need any of this.ĬATION: Optimus manager is relatively new and under heavy development so beware, MAKE A SYSTEM BACKUP before proceeding further. There is no switching, all works like a multi-purpose hybrid mode. Note: For hybrid combos like AMD-Nvidia, just use the video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-440xx-prime mhwd setup and start apps needing dicrete GPU with prime-run. Optimus manager is a port of Ubuntu’s nvidia-prime solution to Arch Linux where a user can easily choose which GPU can be used at this session, so a user can still can save energy and be mobile on a daily basis but have all power and benefits of NVIDIA discrete card when needed (including Vulkan). For hybrid GPU laptops with Intel and Nvidia the best solution usually is to have switchable graphics: Intel for normal, everyday usage (uses less power and saves battery) and NVIDIA for games or more graphic intense programs (uses more battery).
