How can I install Mint like Optimus Manager on LMDE

Post by ekanto »

Hi,

I admire the Nvidia optimus manager as it is one easiest solution to switch cards. Also, the Nvidia On Demand feature is very handy. I can run any app with Nvidia chipset whenever I want. But I miss that feature in LMDE. Why is it not present in LMDE, like it is in Mint 20.

(Sorry if I sound dumb. I have hardly any idea on optimus hardwares).

It's not a dumb question, and it's a truism that there are no dumb questions, but it is also true that while there are no dumb questions, there are an awful lot of dumb answers.

https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee (probably not the best choice)

Those links should help you move forward.
