Nouveau method issue

[Askannz]

Could you reformulate ? I don't understand what the problem is. Is it that switching to Intel does not work ?

Also, could you provide the name of your distribution and your laptop model ? It could be important in this case.

Manjaro - MSI CX62-6QD

There is a led on the power button. If led is blue that means you are using Intel driver. If its red that means you are using Nvidia driver.

Its blue in bumblebee, bbswitch method if I call optirun it turns red.

But optimus-manager's nouveau method makes it red every time, no matter using nvidia or SGI.

And starting overheating...

Solved with removing all kernel settings from grub

And without " acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2009" pcie_port_pm=off " works great !

bbswitch needs that parameters..

Glad to know it works for you know. Actually you raise a good point, it's possible that pcie_port_pm=off is incompatible with nouveau (not sure about the other one). I should probably add something about that in the README.
