Re: Issues with nVidia optimus



I was looking for "xorg.conf" in "/etc/X11" and realize that there is not present, so i tried this solution:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_xorg.conf

Then I modified on /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
        ### Available Driver options are:-
        ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
        ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz",
        ### <percent>: "<f>%"
        ### [arg]: arg optional
        #Option     "SWcursor"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "HWcursor"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "NoAccel"                   # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ShadowFB"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "VideoKey"                  # <i>
        #Option     "WrappedFB"                 # [<bool>]
        #Option     "GLXVBlank"                 # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ZaphodHeads"               # <str>
        #Option     "PageFlip"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "SwapLimit"                 # <i>
        #Option     "AsyncUTSDFS"               # [<bool>]
        #Option     "AccelMethod"               # <str>
        #Option     "DRI"                       # <i>
        Identifier  "Card1"
        Driver      "nvidia" =======================> it was "nouveau"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

nVidia Driver still doesn't working.

When I run "Xorg -configure" it returns:

Fatal server error:

If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock

Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support

I had some bad experiences with 'nvidia-xconfig', after that probably
next boot time it will show a blank screen.
I usually do Xorg -configure, which generates the config file (if there is
no such under /etc/X11/

Then change the driver there if not selected and try the file Xorg -config
(copy to /etc/X11/ if it looks good and restart the server)
