@tachyon - This works for me with the standard nvidia drivers. I'm on a current gazelle (gaze14) laptop.

[jcsanyi@salem ~]$ pacman -Q | grep 'nvidia\|system76'
gnome-shell-extension-system76-power-git 1.2.0.r4.gf9f05fb-1
nvidia 440.59-7
nvidia-utils 440.59-1
system76-acpi-dkms 1.0.1-1
system76-dkms 1.0.6-1
system76-driver 19.10.2-1
system76-firmware-daemon 1.0.7-1
system76-io-dkms 1.0.1-1
system76-power 1.1.3-1

Make sure you've added the PrimaryGPU configuration option described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA_Optimus#Use_NVIDIA_graphics_only

It's not well documented, and broke sometime in the last few months. See here for more details: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=251846

Can someone tell me which graphics driver to use to make it work? Right now only switching to intel works. But switching to nvidia does not work without prime. In prime mode I can only run individual applications on nvidia card but cannot drive the entire display. So basically my external HDMI and display ports are useless now.

Works perfectly for me now, thanks!

done, I have made it so it does not requre git anymore (downloads tar.gz instead), and also added a patch. Please see if it works now.

I was unable to build this package (in a clean env) until I added 'git' to the 'makedepends' list. Can you update the PKGBUILD?

jcsanyi commented on 2019-11-06 18:11 (UTC)

When changing the graphics mode, the daemon updates the mod configs, and then tries to run "update-initramfs -u" to rebuild the initram. On arch, this command does not exist, and the functionality is provided by mkinitcpio instead.

As a temporary workaround, I created a shell script named "update-initramfs" that's just hard-coded to call "mkinitcpio -P", and it now works as intended... but this is a rather unsafe hack, as it completely ignores the parameters passed to the update-initramfs command.

Is this something we should/could be patching as part of the PKGBUILD? It looks like a fairly simple change here: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/blob/master/src/graphics.rs#L298

When I run "system76-power graphics"

It returns:

daemon returned an error message: "The name com.system76.PowerDaemon was not provided by any .service files"

How to deal with this problem?

Hi, This does not seem to work with dbus-broker. Trying to change the profile does not work. This is the log I see while trying to change the profile: dbus-broker[626]: A security policy denied :1.164 to send method call /com/system76/PowerDaemon:com.system76.PowerDaemon.Battery to :1.13289.

I have an issue created upstream and they think it might be related to the dbus policy file.
