I got a hybrid GPU setup - intel iGPU + Nvidia dGPU, drivers are installed but optirun doesn't work without sudo
full optirun output (launched without root):
[ 2104.091364] [ERROR]You've no permission to communicate with the Bumblebee daemon. Try adding yourself to the 'bumblebee' group
[ 2104.091436] [ERROR]Could not connect to bumblebee daemon - is it running?
groups $USER output:
wheel bumblebee
nvidia-smi output:
NVIDIA-SMI 470.63.01 Driver Version: 470.63.01 CUDA Version: 11.4
full bumblebees log (after launching it without sudo):

It works just fine with root, and has exactly same log
any help is appreciated.

Weird multiple instance of bumblebeed. How are you starting it? Did you forget to enable it's service? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bumblebee#Installation
FWIW which generation intel and nvidia respectively? If they are new enough you can opt to not use bumblebee but rely on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME# … er_offload without much of a negative impact and potentially less hassle/better perf (if they are older than Turing/Coffee Lake you might still prefer a proper bumblebee setup)

All I had to do is reboot after adding users to the bumblebee group, it works just fine now.

btw, in terms of performance, is prime better?

Just realized that prime-run is an alias, bruh this is way easier than setting up bumblebee.
