Discrete graphics driver ingored even with Optirun

mbbaig · December 30, 2019, 8:09pm

I’m running Lutris in Fedora 31 on Lenovo X1 Extreme Gen 1.

When I launch Darksiders 3 with optirun/virtualgl option enabled in the settings, it still looks like it’s using the Intel graphics for the game. It should be using the NVidia drivers.

Running optirun --status shows the following:

optirun --status
Bumblebee status: Ready (3.2.1). X is PID 4687, 1 applications using bumblebeed.

Here is the output of Lutris when started in the terminal with lutris:

The output is the same when I run Lutris using optirun lutris

This source of the game is GOG if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance.

I thought virtualgl is an extension of vnc protocol to deliver image to remote host. If that’s true (and you run virtualgl separately), give me information how do you run virtualgl.

Did you ever manage to resolve this?

Do you have nvidia-settings installed? (Might show as NVIDIA X-Server settings).
fire it up from the console, if need be.
Under the section: PRIME Profiles, check GPU is enabled (and using performance profile).
This setting is not kept between reboots by default.
Multi GPU config/profile tools can interfere with each other, so if you running the NVidia driver (now on 450.66) Remove Optimus, Bumblebee etc.

In Lutris game config, system options, do you have NVidia Prime offload enabled?

Alternatively, check on cli:
prime-select query

Options are: nvidia|intel|on-demand|query

nvidia-settings --help

The other way, is to poke around with xrandr, specifically the render and offloading options - but I only needed this for an older AMD Radeon GPU.

nvidia-xconfig -A

Note: --prime, --no-prime
Enable PRIME for the generated X config file. Cannot be run with --no-busid or --no-allow-empty-initial-configuration. On a
system with more than 1 GPU, specify the GPU to use for PRIME with --busid or the first available will be chosen. Note that
to enable PRIME it is necessary to run “xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0” and “xrandr --auto” after
completion.

–use-display-device=DISPLAY-DEVICE, --no-use-display-device
Force the X driver to use the display device specified.
