Cannot switch to nvidia, wrongly set current mode as nvidia

[slade991]

Describe the bug After updating my system optimus-manager still says i'm using nvidia, but i'm not, i'm using intel and it cannot switch to nvidia anymore.

System info Arch (Linux arch 5.15.68-1-lts #1 SMP Thu, 15 Sep 2022 09:53:50 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux) with gnome (GNOME Shell 42.5)

Logs no error with status but here is my boot switch log :

Is this project still maintained ? It looks like most issues are not looked at. My issue seems to be related to this one : https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager/issues/436 from last year which is still open. Let me know if more information are necessary.

Sup @slade991 . While it was not maintained for some time and it had a hiatus, there is a bunch of volunteers coming back to merge stuff and collaborate here.

Is this still reproducing using optimus-manager-git and a more modern Linux install ?

Since this issue isn't active for the last 2 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.
