I’m aware that there have been lots of discussions about this matter, yet I’ve been trying to find a solution for several days now and went through a lot of posts with no luck :C. Recently I started using Manjaro KDE, and while previously (on XFCE) optimus manager managed to make my external display work correctly using nvidia, now I’m unable to make it work.
