NVidia Drivers/Optimus issues on Manjaro


Hi all,

I have Manjaro installed on my old laptop and it is in use as a media server. Part of what I'd like to do is allow connections to my TV via the HDMI port. Unfortunately this is producing issues. I've done a fair bit of research and have found that there are issues with NVIDIA Optimus drivers with Manjaro Linux, however I'm really not sure where to go from here, or even if this is the issue. What happens when I connect my PC to TV, is that the TV recognises that it is connected, however the laptop doesn't.

Can anyone help me with this please?

This thread is closed now. I gave up on Manjaro and switched to Ubuntu.
