I've been working on improvements to suse-prime.
In particular, the ability to turn off the NVIDIA card entirely with bbswitch when not in use. This adds some complexity, but it is worth it as I have noticed my laptop idle power consumption using the Intel card go from 12W to about 6W when the NVIDIA card is powered off and a gain of -10 degrees on the temperature.
You can find a description and instructions on github: https://github.com/bubbleguuum/better-suse-prime
of course, the suse-prime maintainers are encouraged to pick any bits they see fit for the regular package.
