[SOLVED] Change OpenGL render to GPU

I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME# … figuration but i cant configure my laptop for use GPU.

glxinfo | grep 'OpenGL renderer'
OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 14.0.6, 256 bits)

I use Gnome (wayland) with nouveu drivers (NVIDIA 3060). I dont want nvidia propietary drivers.

I saw switcheroo-control but i dont understand use.

Any idea?, thanks,

Re: [SOLVED] Change OpenGL render to GPU

nouveau doesn't have working acceleration for a card this new, you absolutely do want the proprietary drivers.

If it gives you the fuzzies that card is eligible for nvidia-open which will at least make the kernel space open source (though iirc these currently have an issue waking from suspend if I'm not mistaken).

FWIW if you get that output already then likely even your intel drivers aren't setup correctly. Remove xf86-video-intel if installed and make sure mesa is set up.
