Hybrid Graphics Intel + MX 150 Set Up

Tested On Dota 2 Vulkan, Prior Vulkan 50+fps , With Nvidia Vulkan Enabled 150+ fps

Xorg packages For Intel and Mesa

xf86-video-intel
xf86-video-vesa

I remove nouveau package since im using nvidia ( and its better on performance)

Nvidia Packages

nvidia
nvidia-prime

Hybrid Mode uses nvidia-prime allows us to use prime-run (on demand GPU max 60fps)

Add this Pacman Hook , Auto Update Nvidia Modules

/etc/pacman.d/hooks/nvidia.hook

Install vulkan packages

vulkan-intel
vulkan-tools
gpu-viewer

and installed Optimus manager QT , it comes with optimus manager as dependency

optimus-manage-qt
bbswitch
lightdm
lightdm-webkit2-greeter
lightdm-webkit-theme-aether-git

bbswitch is needed so we can switch GPU with optimus manager

lightdm is needed to properly switch GPU

create dwm session sudo vim /usr/share/xsessions/dwm.desktop for lightdm

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Dwm
Comment=Dynamic window manager
Exec=dwm
Icon=dwm
Type=XSession

change greeter-session and user-session

sudo sed -i 's/^\(#?greeter\)-session\s*=\s*\(.*\)/greeter-session = lightdm-webkit2-greeter #\1/ #\2g' /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
sudo sed -i 's/^\(#?user\)-session\s*=\s*\(.*\)/user-session = dwm #\1/ #\2g' /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

use aether theme

sudo sed -i 's/^webkit_theme\s*=\s*\(.*\)/webkit_theme = lightdm-webkit-theme-aether #\1/g' /etc/lightdm/lightdm-webkit2-greeter.conf

add your wallpaper

cd /usr/share/lightdm-webkit/themes/lightdm-webkit-theme-aether/src/img/wallpapers
sudo wget url_to_wallpaper
sudo chmod 644 wallpaper.png

change avatar

cd /var/lib/AccountsService/icons
sudo wget https://avatars.dicebear.com/api/avataaars/sudoken.svg
sudo chmod 644 sudoken.svg
sudo mv sudoken.svg avatar.svg
sudo vim /var/lib/AccountsService/users/${whoami)

update /var/lib/AccountsService/users/${whoami)

[User]
Session=default
XSession=dwm
Icon=/var/lib/AccountsService/icons/sudoken.jpg
SystemAccount=false

this is my optimus.conf /etc/optimus-manager/optimus-manager.conf

surprisingly all configuration for vulkan works out of the box same config for intel in arch wiki

[intel]
DRI=3
accel=
driver=modesetting
modeset=yes
tearfree=

[nvidia]
DPI=96
PAT=yes
allow_external_gpus=no
ignore_abi=no
modeset=yes
options=overclocking

[optimus]
auto_logout=no
pci_power_control=no
pci_remove=no
pci_reset=no
startup_auto_battery_mode=intel
startup_auto_extpower_mode=nvidia
startup_mode=intel
switching=bbswitch

my ~/.xinitrc

#!/usr/bin/env sh
. ~/.xprofile
ssh-agent dwm

i do have this lightdm config installed by optimus manager

/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/20-optimus-manager.conf

So this basically is the one responsible for switching the Cards during login and logout

[Seat:*]
# Force using X
type=local
display-setup-script=/sbin/prime-offload
display-stopped-script=/sbin/prime-switch

Another thing to Add either on your .zshrc This is needed for vulkan to reference proper GPU like intel and NVIDIA

export VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/intel_icd.x86_64.json:/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.json

to check vulkan is working run

vulkaninfo

For MAX FPS use NVIDIA Mode By Setting it as Default Video Card On Startup
