Hey, everything has been working fine for a few weeks. I woke up today and opened steam to find only my intel card was being used. After I saw that, the first thing I ran was primusrun glxgears to check if that would work it gave me this as the output.
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: Could not enable discrete graphics cardBesides the obvious of what it means, I had no idea where to go from there. I reinstalled bumblebee, I am in the user group, I reinstalled nvidia. Rebooted multiple times, still gives the same output. I also have bbswitch installed and that stays OFF. Ive tried to turn it ON, gives no error in the terminal but when I check it, it is still off. Ill leave a few random things below, like my bumblebee.conf and such. If you need more information or anything just let me know. Thanks!
driver version is nvidia 375.20-3

Ofcourse I figured it out shortly after I post this question. I found a post, which I will link below with the solution. It would run when plugged into the AC adapter so I found out it was a TLP issue. Just had to modify some settings, which are also in the link that is posted below.
