Hello, forum.
Firstly, I have to say that English is not my native language, so, please, do not blame me for my mistakes, thanks!
There is a long story I want to tell you, my friends. One day (~6 months ago) I wanted to install custom kernel to see greater perfomance, but I had a huge headache because of problems with nvidia and bumblebee. These things simply hate me and just wouldn't like to work correctly! I had a lot of combinations of packages from different repos to make these things work well — official packages, AUR ones, dkms packages, packages from archlinuxcn (unofficial repository), I reinstalled them some times, recompilated kernel from AUR, archlinuxcn and from other sources. The best result I had — nvidia worked with the same perfomance as intel did. But videocard switched on that time and heated my laptop, lol.
Now I want to remove all the stuff, related to videocard and linux-pf, except mesa and intel drivers (should I do it by simply typing «yaourt -Rs %all_the_stuff%» or there is another, better option?).
After that I am going to do the things forum tells me. I want the things to do for installing bumblebee, but the some information and instructions for installing linux-pf and its headers would be nice as well. I can install that, but I want to do it the right way, you know.
Guys, trust me, I googled all these things thousands times, I really did everything Internet tells. And now I want the answer from people, who:
1) Actually has laptop with modern nvidia discrete videocard;
2) Using archlinux (ha-ha) and linux-pf or -ck patchset;
3) Using Bumblebee with proprietary nvidia driver (I need max perfomance);
4) Has all things above working correctly, like a charm.
Thanks a lot for your replies! This forum is the last place I actually can get help.
