Symptoms

Everytime when I need to run a game i have to run it with prime-run to use dGPU, and the game crashes this way, I also have tried launching the game through terminal and I get the same crash.

But when I launch the game with iGPU the game works.

I'm coming with an update, and I found the issue.

First of all I'm using an ASUS TUF Gaming FX505DT with AMDGPU as integrated driver and NVIDIA as dedicated.

I'm also using https://github.com/Hyper-KVM/optimus-manager, this is a fork from Optimus-Manager which is actually made for Intel GPU/Nvidia, but this one works for my AMDGPU/Nvidia system.

Now i'm on hybrid, hence I'm using the prime-run configuration, before launching any game to use dedicated gpu. But if I change from hybrid to nvidia (using optimus manager) the game works just fine.

What I observed is that the game, ignores prime-run, and it really wants to launch using the iGPU (AMD).

Symptoms

When i run hearts of iron4 from the paradox launcher(i start it from steam then it loads the paradox launcher) it crashes while using the dedicated gpu. I use optimus-manager in hybrid mode and the only game that gives problems is hearts of iron 4. Every game i launch has these launch options: prime-run %command% Every game works fine, only hearts of iron 4 seems to have problems. (I have my laptop(ideapadgaming 3 15arh05) connected to a hdmi screen)

Reproduction

I open steam and then i start hearts of iron 4. At first it loads the paradox launcher and when i click start, the launcher disappears and then the paradox crash report shows. PS: I can't get the proton log file, it doesnt even generate it
