I have used the GUI variant of MHWD to install the 450xx drivers for my Nvidia GPU (“Auto Install Proprietary Driver”).
I started my laptop with every installed kernel, one after another (5.8, 5.7, 5.4, 4.19, 4.14), but it doesn’t work.
$nvidia-settings
ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
In /etc/X11/mhwd.d/nvidia.conf
, there is just a comment:
##
## Generated by mhwd - Manjaro Hardware Detection

The same in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-mhwd.conf
. Could that be the cause of the problem?
can you please return
inxi -Fza
mhwd -li
you are messing up videos drivers if this is a laptop

And yes, it is a laptop. And no, I’m not messing up video drivers (intentionally) - I’m just using MHWD tool and would expect it doing it right. But maybe that’s the same - I don’t know.
manjaro installation in case of hybrid cards choose open-soure intel ( or amd )
if you need to check hybrid nvidia cards, then this is a prime command
prime-run nvidia-settings
prime-run vulkaninfo
prime-run glxinfo ( prime offload)
$prime-run glxinfo

Why are both installed? If you want the proprietary drivers, uninstall video-hybrid-intel-nouveau-prime
and reinstall the other: sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-450xx-prime
Here we go again…
Purge PRIME. (Will not work!)
Install bumblebee:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-450xx-prime
sudo mhwd -r pci video-hybrid-intel-nouveau-prime
sudo mhwd -i pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-390xx-bumblebee
sudo gpasswd -a $USER bumblebee
sudo systemctl enable bumblebeed
Reboot.
Check if all is fine:
optirun -b none nvidia-settings -c :8
optirun nvidia-smi
optirun glxinfo|grep Open

Indeed, I didn’t even check the gpu model, PRIME won’t work, so you’re left with bumblebee.
MHWD with lastest live isos is stupid and cannot handle older nvidia’s chips. They cannot support PRIME, but when MHWD find INTEL + NVIDIA, then installing in default PRIME based profile, but should install legacy bumblebee instead FOR OLDER devices.

Tried this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bumblebee#[ERROR]Cannot_access_secondary_GPU:_No_devices_detected
I have added
Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidiagpu1"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
EndSection
to the bottom of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-mhwd.conf
file after checking the bus with
$lspci | grep GeForce
04:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF117M [GeForce 610M/710M/810M/820M / GT 620M/625M/630M/720M] (rev a1)
but after a restart it doesn’t change anything.
Solved the issue by adding
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
to the
Section "Device"
in
/etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia
.
