startx: no screens found

Hi, I have a laptop with both an Intel GPU and Nvidia one. I have installed the following package:

- mesa
- bumblebee
- lib32-nvidia-utils 410.57-1
- nvidia 410.57-4
- nvidia-lets 1:410.57-2
- nvidia-settings 410.57-2
- nvidia-utils 410.57-3

lspci:

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Inter Corporation Device 3e9b
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP106M (1060M)

My xconfig file was auto generated by nvidia, however, I boot into the following error:

...
xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted)
...
No screen found (EE)

What should I do ?

Well, look like you're right. Deleting the file solved it.

Thank you.
