Hi,
I am trying to follow the guide at https://discovery.endeavouros.com/nvidia/new-nvidia-driver-installer-nvidia-inst/2022/03/ to install nvidia drivers with prime on my laptop. My laptop has Intel HD 4600 and Nvidia 750M graphic cards.
I found that 390 series drivers were supported:
$ nvidia-inst --drivers
NVIDIA card id: 0fe4
Series 510: not supported
Series 470: not supported
Series 390: supported
More info: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix
I used the following command to install the drivers, but I received an error:
$ nvidia-inst --prime --legacyrepo

2022-04-10 15:11:21: Note: This repo provides legacy Nvidia drivers and LTS kernels.

I wanted to ask if I am using the right commands in this case or have I made a mistake somewhere? Here is my system information:
