No option to install proprietary driver on optimus laptop

[Mirdarthos]

Hi @pawelx,

The older proprietary nvidia drivers were removed. So if your GPU isn’t supported by the new drivers, I suspect this happens.

Please see:

Dropping all legacy and older Nvidia drivers ?!?

[image] It becomes harder and harder to support the older and legacy Nvidia drivers for upcoming kernel series. Starting with 5.9 kernel series, only 450 and 455 are supported by this kernel. Older drivers simply don’t compile anymore. Out of the two, only 455 supports CUDA. If we look at Arch, they already dropped the legacy drivers completely. We would go back to a rolling driver update, and only offer the latest Nvidia driver. This might bring back the known issues, that some graphic cards …

If you wish to continue using the older, legacy driver, please see

[HowTo] get legacy 340xx NVIDIA drivers back

Prepare your system for building drivers you may want to install development tools:sudo pacman -S git base-devel then you may want to install your proper kernel headers:sudo pacman -S $(mhwd-kernel -li | grep '*' | cut -d ' ' -f5 | awk '{print $0,"-headers"}' | sed s'/ //'g) 340xx (dkms for kernel 5.4 or 5.10 only) You need to get the sources first: git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/extra/nvidia-340xx-utils.git git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/multilib/lib32-nvi…

Help me install the Nvidia 340 driver

We dropped 340xx driver of Nvidia, as it is not supported by Nvidia anymore. However you can get the sources from us and compile the needed drivers on your end: sudo pacman -S git wget base-devel git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/extra/nvidia-340xx-utils.git cd nvidia-340xx-utils && makepkg -si && cd .. git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/multilib/lib32-nvidia-340xx-utils.git cd lib32-nvidia-340xx-utils && makepkg -si && cd .. git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages…

Hope this helps!
