[Solved] Migrating from Intel to Nvidia

Hello, I'm installing a Nvidia graphics card into my machine, up to now I've been using just Intel's integrated GPU and official drivers (as described in the Wiki). I'm wondering if I need to do anything more than just install the Nvidia drivers like in the Wiki (I'm thinking about the libgl and lib32-libgl providers, as I currently have mesa installed) to fully migrate to Nvidia and configure X ,OpenGL and so forth to use the Nvidia card. Thanks for any help in advance smile

No just install nvidia as mentioned in the wiki (mostly replace mesa-libgl with nvidia-libgl and install the nvidia and nvidia-utils packages) if you don't have any custom Xorg.conf this should work ootb
