Hello,
i installed recently manjaro these days ( i migrated from linux mint )
it’s a begginer friendly distro and everything goes smoothly at this moment except one thing…
as you can imagine i have the same problem than the others users with the famous driver of nvidia
i’m using the desktop environment cinnamon based on Lightdm so in this case what optimus program i have to use?
this one ? → GitHub - Askannz/optimus-manager: A Linux program to handle GPU switching on Optimus laptops.
