Install the graphics driver problem with core i7-2630

Hi,I'm using a laptop with core i7-2630 CPU and nvidia gt550 graphics card,

but with archlinux ,i try to "pacman -S nvidia" to install the driver,there is something wrong "nvidia-utils conflict with libgl" and "intel-dri require libgl",

I just install xf86-video-intel and something like xf86-video-** to using the cpu's graphics core,

in this case,my enlightenment 17 cann't run well, the screen is not smooth,also gnome3.

I don't know how to solve this problem,do you have any suggestion?

Sounds like your machine uses NVIDA Optimus; look into bumblebee.
