Hi,
I broke my system a week ago while doing an upgrade, I didn’t have any warning messages that something would change on my system, after rebooting, my screen got blinking & I couldn’t even ctrl+alt+F2 into other shells, I did arch-chroot to try debugging for hours without fixing anything, it was quite annoying.
｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡
At some point I found this article which saved my day, I don’t know how to get to know these major upgrades before breaking my system but
┐(‘～`；)┌
TL;DR
Now everything is kinda back to normal but still I have this weird lag/delay onto second screen with latest nvidia drivers, I can’t use second screen as it stutters a lot.
Before my system broke, I used this xfce plugin from aur (optimus-manager ?) to switch between hybrid, dedicated & discrete GPU. Now I don’t know how to manage it anymore, or if I can install optimus-manager back as I really don’t wan’t to break my system again.
With extra/nvidia-prime 1.0-4 installed, what do I need to have hybrid, dedicated & discrete GPU selection back ?
It seems I’m missing some items inside nvidia-settings 530.41.03-1 like in this screenshot :
What causes this second screen delay & how can I resolve it ? I can paste some journalctl stuff if needed.
Currently running EndeavourOS 6.3.2-zen1-1-zen but I do also have lts & default EndeavourOS kernels.
Here are some other informations from my system. Thanks a bunch.

Thanks a lot to anyone that contributed to EndeavourOS, better os than Manjaro I was using before.
