optimus-manager | nvidia module not found | nouveau NVD7

Trying to run glxgears with nvidia with the help of optimus-manager:

 [ck@arch ~]$ optimus-manager --switch nvidia
A GPU switch from integrated to nvidia is pending.

Re: optimus-manager | nvidia module not found | nouveau NVD7

You need to install the kernel headers package of the kernel you are using for a DKMS package to build the corresponding module. E.g. linux-headers in case of the normal linux package or linux-lts-headers for linux-lts and so forth. Upon doing this you should see a post-installation hook building the nvidia module for the corresponding kernel.

local/linux 5.13.7.arch1-1
....
local/linux-headers 5.13.9.arch1-1

Perform a full system upgrade so the kernel and kernel headers have the same version.   That should also trigger DKMS to rebuild the nvidia module which should then succeed.

After pacman -S linux, nvidia dkms driver was built successfully, then I ran:

[ck@arch ~]$ prime-offload

I'm currently working on a solution but this is what I got so far, also I uninstalled xf86-video-nouveau because in some other thread it seems to be conflicting with the proprietary nvidia-390xx-dkms driver.

Performed full system update

[ck@arch ~]$ prime-offload
[ck@arch ~]$ glxgears
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[ck@arch ~]$ glxinfo
name of display: :0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

I searched for these outputs on this forum, but it seems that people that get the errors above have issues that are related to Intel or Bumblebee for some reason

Re: optimus-manager | nvidia module not found | nouveau NVD7

Don't do that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Genera … es#Bumping

If you ran that immediately after the driver finished building then that isn't surprising. In any case, nvidia-prime and similar dynamic offloading methods require a newer driver than 390xx. From a Optimus-manager perspective the only things that make sense here are intel or nvidia-only modes which are determined at the start of the Xorg session. If you want something dynamic during the session your only realistic option is bumblebee.

You might want to post a xorg log and/or a 

sudo journalctl -b

so we can check what actually happens.
