Hello.
I have a script to install proprietary nvidia driver that i use for years.
2 month ago I succeed with NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-455.38.run on a asus strix .
On an asus with gf114m (GTX 670M) After installing NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.138.run, I try to install suse-prime.
Suse-prime try to install some G05 suse driver breaking the installation of 390.138 nvidia driver.
Any help is welcome.
Hi
I wouldn’t worry about using suse-prime then, just use offload, then can just use for the applications your wanting…

Hi
Further to the above, switcheroo-control is another option (works on GNOME) https://01.org/linuxgraphics/gfx-docs/drm/gpu/vga-switcheroo.html
Thank you for the information but I am running kde.
Thank you for the tips.
I checked after the fact the characteristics of this laptop. It is not optimus. So installing suse-prime makes no sense.
But I would like to know if installing suse-prime may overwrite the current install of the graphic driver.
And if yes, why the operator is not notified.
Is it a king of bug ?
Hi
Then just offload, you could set as an alias or script to call from the applications you want to run?
