2 years ago Sorry for the inconvenience but it works now. I just powered on my computer and there was the little icon in the system tray (I also have optimus manager qt). Don't know what I did to fix it but there it is. I'll close the issue now.
I tried to switch to my nvidia gpu using optimus-manager --switch nvidia. I have the nvidia-intel hybrid driver installed. This is the log:

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