Be advised: I added --no-cc-version-check for skip GCC version error to install.sh where the script block of additional options parameter.
Hi, you need to update the script now, I renamed it to install.bash.
Also that GCC version error is due to mismatch between your GCC version and the one that your kernel is compiled with.
This problem occured before, but is very soon resolved after new kernel updates.
Which window manager are you referring to for gdm-prime?
Me? I didnât suggest to use gdm-prime.
I think this will be the last time that I use the react-by-email feature 
Hello @doct0rHu, I apologize for the long silence.
I understand correctly that to use nvidia-xrun i need install nvidia drivers again?
In my last post, I mentioned that after install.bash i saw black screen.
nvidia-xrun should be installed after NVIDIA proprietary driver is installed.
Also note that I cannot test whether this works on Clear Linux because I have a desktop computer so I can just plug my display to NVIDIA gpu and donât have the problem youâre having. Actually I cannot replicate a situation that youâre having.
Thanks, I have seen people discussing this. This is due to a recent change to swupd command that they temporarily removed this option because users may misuse it.
As a workaround, replace swupd repair by swupd verify --fix.
Although swupd verify is deprecated, itâs still working.

@doct0rHu thx you again, that help! Today i install fresh drivers (install, postinstall, reboot), install and run x-run (your fork). After some re-cofiguration (pci bridge with nvidia have bus id 0000:00:1c.0 for me. Yeah, with letter c) x-run try load nvidia. Screen blink but session not started. Here you can see some logs with errors: http://termbin.com/pet4. What you thinking about this?
I see files with same name in another directory https://termbin.com/sc8y
With latest update to Gnome 3.34 there seems to be more going on, since on my Optimus laptop Iâm still stuck at the black screenâŚ
Also this happens when running update.sh
Youâre not alone: GNOME fails to start after installing NVIDIA proprietary driver ¡ Issue #1274 ¡ clearlinux/distribution ¡ GitHub
@puneetse While youâre here, to give you some insights: it actually all worked until yesterday. I just had to wait about 3 minutes for GDM to show up. Now I reinstalled clear Linux from scratch and:
- display port works only on Wayland when using Nouveau
2)no graphical environment works with propietary drivers.
I have not tried to install SDDM/KDE, but it was so painful to use when I tried it that it was one of the reason I decided to make a clean reinstall (other reason was I had to rearrange some partitions, but thatâs of no interest to you).
Hi everyone,
I decided to give another go in trying to install NVIDIA drivers on an Optimus machine, this time it seems I am very close. Could someone please inspect the xorg log on the link: https://gist.github.com/lf-araujo/1106640c7a66dee16fe61965bf5ccd05
It seems it is not detecting the monitors:
[ 95.977] (II) modeset(G1): using drv /dev/dri/card1
[ 95.977] (EE) No devices detected.
[ 95.977] (EE)
Fatal server error:
[ 95.977] (EE) no screens found(EE)
- How can I fix this last problem?
@lf_araujo On my PC it takes at least 3-4 minutes to boot up. Did you insert all the changes listed here?
Very sad to hear thatâŚ
Reformatted the partitions, reinstalled Clear Linux aaand now, with latest version, it works. I think the uninstall script leaves some garbage behind⌠otherwise it wouldnât explain how the system wouldnât even install the drivers, let alone booting. Yes, I still need the intel_iommu=on option but hey, at least it boots in 5 secs and not 5 mins, can program CUDA and make use of those sweet sweet 50 FPS more on CS:GO than the ones I had on Windows)⌠Damn I wish every game was on Linux, CPU is my bottleneck and on CL it has 50-60% more performance than on Windows (although from user-friendlyness still thereâs no comparison)âŚ

The uninstall script calls the uninstaller and removes everything the install script created, including removing the settings for Xorg, ld.conf and etc.
The installer sometimes seem to leave things behind though.
A new issue has arisen: when using Nvidia drivers, only the external monitor is detected, thus not allowing me to access graphical environment without reverting to Nouveau⌠Now, I was thinking about two possible solutions:
- making the internal display work again
- switching between drivers without uninstalling them, possibly with no reboot
