Good morning!
I have problems with my graphic driver, i have installed free drivers intel and nvidia, but when i log in (and in Slim), i see how monitor has a little "vibration", "flicker", when i see videos too.
I have install nvidia and nvidia-utils but i dont know how to configure the files correctly, i maked the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf with the minimun configuration and when i restart, boot just until the console login, not startx.
I need help with this.
Thanks.

zaphiel, welcome to Arch Linux forums.
We'll need lots of info from you to be able to help , please post lspci -k , full dmesg , the content of 20-nvidia.conf , xorg log.
(dmesg & xorg log will be big, use a pastebin client for them)

Seems that you have a laptop with Optimus setup. Do check the Wiki on how to properly configure Intel IGP+Nvidia DGP combo.

Optimus is is all laptop with intel + nvidia graphic card?
Bumblebee and Optimus are the same?
Thanks.

Reading the first couple sentences of the linked wiki page would answer that question. Please make an effort and don't expect to be spoon fed. I empathize with the frustration of setting up hybrid graphics systems, I've never done it, but it seems a little confusing from the outside - so members here can definitely help, but when they give you some information, at very least skim through it before asking questions that they have just provided the answer for.

You are right, im sorry, im frustrating with this, when i used Debian i had troubles with graphics but i "solved" it without using hybrid system, i have seen that bumblebee offers extra funcionality for optimus.
Im going to read the wiki...

Hello.
I have installed Bumblebee, cause i cant disable any graphic card on Bios, so i just can use bumblebee, is correct?
Install bumblebee and when i test glxgears works correctly, but appers two errors:
$ glxgears
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 647 requests (446 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
$ optirun glxgears -info
[VGL] ERROR: in readback--
[VGL] 254: Window has been deleted by window manager
I supuse is when i close the window in both cases...
Here full log
And i add to ~/.xinitrc
xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0
xrandr --auto
with 'Driver "modesetting"' on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf
But the problem continue... i dont know what is missing
My problems are View My Video and View My Video
Thanks.

You can do it two ways, via PRIME or via Bumblebee. Don't mix the two.

So you are following Bumblebee
And i add to ~/.xinitrc
xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0 xrandr --auto
with 'Driver "modesetting"' on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf
Those configurations are for NVIDIA_Optimus

Yes sorry, but PRIME has less features than Bumblebee, so i discard it.

True... but i dont know what i need to solve this. Bumblebee configuration is for energy, speed and monitors...
When i write on terminal 'nvidia-settings', i get a message says i dont use driver for nvidia card, but i installed it...

Why do you think mixing parts of different methods to control hybrid graphics would work?
Offline
I dont know that it would work, but im tried optimus, bumblebee, open-source driver, propietary driver... sorry if i mix concepts when i write here, I took an impressive mind cocoa.
Offline
Prime doesn't need it's own speed , power management , monitor settings . Xrandr allows the cards/drivers to use their native options for that.
Bumblebee bypassess the nvidia driver and needs to take care of those things itself.
-------------------------
Hybrid graphics can be very tricky to setup,especially when using nvidia proprietary driver.
a few tips:
nvidia-settings & nvidia-xconfig are intended for systems where only nvidia cards are present.
They are useless on intel/nvidia or amd/nvidia systems.
Nvidia Optimus/Prime and Bumblebee do similar things in different ways and can not be mixed.
If you prefer bumblebee remove everything needed for nvidia optimus .
Currently your basic setup is wrong, fix that first.

I'm with it, but i tried before mix and issue continue, in fact, issue begin when i install openbox at first startx, without any driver nouveau/nvidia... so i dont think that install bumblebee or nvidia driver or nouveau driver fix the problem, maybe with xorg.
Offline
I test screen with the installer, and the flick appears too, with the cfdisk tool i can see it, so, maybe is an driver issue?, or in the installer happens because isn't any driver??
I dont know how to fix it...

That is very useful info.
Afaik install iso and X environment only share a small part of linux graphics stack : the kernel modules.
Also i'm 99% sure it only uses the primary videocard.
Now we know the issue originates on kernel level, we can troubleshoot further.
What are brand and model of your MotherBoard and which model is your intel processor ?
Do you have intel microcode updates configured ?
Is your UEFU/Biosfirmware at latest version ?
post full dmesg log please.

The intel microcode isnt configured still... i forget it...soon be installing.
My Bios is last updated.
Here is my dmesg log.
Mmm, i have installed linux-lts and... i think the issue is or fix, or at least I not appreciate it now, in another case, i will be install microcode.
Now, i uninstall all drivers, i have just xf86-video-intel and mesa at the moment.
Thanks!.
EDIT: when i do scrolling on web, the issue is there...

Nothing in dmesg stands out.
Make sure you configure microcode updates, maybe it helps.

@Lone_Wolf
Hello.
I had updated microcode yet, i created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf file, cause im installed only intel graphic card driver with the next configuration:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
And i think... works lightly better...
Thanks a lot.
