Install optimus-manager and check what happens in hybrid and nvidia only modes
nova viper
It has -git at the end
Because it's a vcs package and gets the newest commit from github
dense current
oh
i may be profoundly stupid
[blueazure@archlinux ~]$ sudo pacman -S optimus-manager
[sudo] password for blueazure:
error: target not found: optimus-manager
[blueazure@archlinux ~]$ sudo pacman -S optimus-manager-git
[sudo] password for blueazure:

You can search the aur with yay or the aur website
nova viper
```
[blueazure@archlinux ~]$ sudo pacman -S optimus-manager
[sudo] password for ...
It's a aur package
dense current

@nova viper

nova viper
so yay is for AUR packages?
Yeah its an aur helper but it can also install official repo packages since it's a pacman wrapper too
dense current

dense current
i'm bieng dumb, aren't i?
nova viper
sudo systemctl enable --now optimus-manager
nova viper
i'm bieng dumb, aren't i?
Nah optimus-manager just isn't used much anymore because the newer nvidia drivers support prime offloading
Also there's envycontrol but idk if it works with old drivers
dense current
okie
ah yes
