Hi again :-)
I am installing leap on my new Asus GL552VW-CN113T that has an intel graphics chip and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 M.
So I added the nvidia repository, gave it "98" and run a zypper dup on my fresh and fully updated install. When I clicked on the Nvidia-Settings it said I must run nvidia-xconfig as root, what I did.
I got some error messages about missing things (sorry, don't remember exactly what it was) and then - after logging out/in - there was no KDE anymore, only a text-login.
No way to get the graphical environment back, removing all proprietary nvidia things with yast did not help.
Ok, no problem, this is a virgin computer and I simply reinstalled the whole system. Now I have it all updated again (right now without the nvidia-repo...) and would love to make use of this graphic card...
How do I proceed?
Googling tells me a lot about optimus and bumblebee, but I cannot find out if I have an optimus thing (the asus site does not mention this word, and the nvidia page about the card neither).
Google also told me to disable intel graphics in the bios, but there is no such possibility (can only allocate more or less memory).
Thanks for your help!
Daniel
1. Yes, you have an Optimus system. Optimus systems have an Intel GPU + and NVIDIA one. 2. You have two options: - Bumblebee ( which allows you to run individual applications on the NVIDIA by adjusting their startup commands ) - suse-prime ( which allows you to run your entire X session on either the Intel, or the NVIDIA ). The forums contain a couple of threads on suse-prime. Mind, on Tumbleweed the packages is called suse-prime-alt -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a.
