I am using vanilla Arch and i am getting this erorr. The log is down:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Same issue here, on manjaro with kernel 5.14. It appears to be due to subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'modprobe nvidia NVreg_UsePageAttributeTable=1' returned non-zero exit status 1.

@mauricioquintela hey i think i fixed it by reinstalling python and reinstalling optimus manager also remove bbswitch from the config file and set it no none try to figure it out later if this was an issue

[mauricioquintela]

@cyrstem followed your instructions, no fix yet. It appears to me that it is a kernel-related issue

[nwildner]

Sup @mauricioquintela @Schwarzeisc00l @nitesh99k . Is this still reproducing in your setups even with a more modern linux Distro install + optimus-manager-git?

Since this issue isn't active for the last 3 years ago and a lot has changed in many aspects of multiple software, we'll keep this case opened for some days and close it if no answer is provided.

Have a nice week ahead.

Reopen if still there.
