You can use this PKGBUILD and optimus-manager.install for the time being. Those pull from the upstream repo and are likely about the same like what @Askannz will publish to the AUR.

I've not used the fork for some months now, actually since Askannz has set up his amd_support branch.

Sorry for the hassle btw.

Man, my usual luck, I found THE SOLUTION a mere few hours after its father has broken it.

@Kr1ss you had 3 files in a "script/" directory that evidently didn't make the merge into @Askannz's repo, are they used in any way, or can I simply remove the installs?

At the moment I have a laptop with a NVIDIA card that won't work, only a bunch of hours left until I have to hand it back, and the only solution that seems to work is not available because you deleted your fork BEFORE the upstream maintainer could update his package.

Is this not usually handled the other way around? Any way that I could have those 3 files?

Since amd_support has now been merged, could you please push the updated PKGBUILD @Askannz ?

optimus-manager-amd-git is now obsolete and could then be deleted. Thanks again !

Cheers !

EDIT Thank you very much !

The feature branch has been merged into master in the upstream repo. Therefore I've deleted my fork.

The optimus-manager-git package is not yet updated, I suppose @Askannz will soon do so though. Once that is done, everbody can just install that one, optimus-manager-amd-git will be uninstalled automatically due to the provides/conflicts mechanics.

Thank you again @t1meshift for publishing this package and maintaing so far.

Thank you for this project. I can easily switch between the nvidia and intel GPU. Instructions is clear and simple to understand. Dell inspiron 15 7567 running under Manjaro with KDE.

@rharish yeah, that was a typo. The PKGBUILD was incorrectly pinned to master instead of the version tag. Fixed now.

After six hours of tinkering with other options this is the only solution that actually worked practically out of the box on Thinkpad w520 with display brightness controls working with recommended kernel parameters (video.use_native_backlight=0 acpi_backlight=video nvidia-drm.modeset=1). Other ones had issues with either starting X (lots of different problems) or controlling backlight.

Thank you for your work.

@Askannz, since this package gets the latest commits from your repo, isn't it a duplicate of "optimus-manager-git"? Even the PKGBUILDs are extremely similar. Why not make this package download the source tarball from the latest release, and then build that one?

Thank you for the project! For some reason, last update does not seem to install the default optimus-manager.conf in /etc/optimus-manager/ (and the upgrade deleted the one that was already there).

@uno20001 Yes, someone needs to update this PKBUILD.
