Hi. A few months ago, after installing Optimus Manager for the first time I have experienced some issues with my GPU drivers, since I could not use my nvidia RTX 2060 to play any games after installing Optimus and I also could not reinstall my drivers. This problem was solved after finishing a few tweaks in Optimus Manager, however yesterday after I came home from work my second monitor wasn’t working, which was weird because it was working perfectly fine before I went to work. Intrigued, I booted to Windows 10 and the monitor was working fine there, so I decided to reinstall my drivers again, but it just would give me an error message. Because I recognized this error, I tried changing GPU’s in Optimus but it just gave me this message
I have input the commands it showed me into the terminal but it keep giving me the same message, even after a reboot.
After that, I disabled Optimus, uninstalled it, deleted the nvidia.conf file, did sudo optimus-manager --cleanup , installed it again, but it still did not work and keep gaving me this same message (the monitor works fine without Optimus installed btw). Any thoughts on what might be the issue?
Here is my system configuration:
