ok, it seems to have worked
My current output is
Bumblebee status: Ready (3.2.1). X inactive. Discrete video card is off.
Also, running the check for power-saving-thingy went well, so I guess there is nothing left to do about it, right?
Many thanks

- and as of the restart, I tried it first without rebooting, because it says to check before it says to reboot and I was afraid it won’t and I’ll have to reinstall alll over again. but then I read that the systemctl changes should take place only after rebooting, so I did, but the output to
optirun --status
is still the same (4’s output changed however, as expected)

I tried to follow the Bumblebee guide on Antergos Wiki (can’t link because it blocks it as spam for some reason). I turned off the Discrete graphic setting in my BIOS (it’s now set to UMA),
and installed all of the written packages (and nothing else - my laptop is basically Antergos+Openbox clean-installed from an hour ago).
I added my user to the Bumblebee group and enabled the service; now, I want to check whether or not I need to install the power-saving patch, but when I get the following output:$ optirun --status [ 1826.825923] [ERROR]The Bumblebee daemon has not been started yet or the socket path /var/run/bumblebee.socket was incorrect. [ 1826.826001] [ERROR]Could not connect to bumblebee daemon - is it running?
Does anyone know how to handle that? did I forget something or did something wrong in the process?

I saw there’s no help coming on how to do it without formatting my laptop, and found no trace as to how to do it anywhere else, so I formatted and started anew… Now I have problems with the bumblebee setup, but I’ll open a separate thread for it

Please note what @bonbonboi wrote. It’s only a panel plugin. You shouldn’t create any launcher to it as it’s a separate panel item. It may run using
xfce4-popup-whiskermenu
from terminal, but it’s not the straightforward way and unsupported for some versions… Just use the appropriate menu item -

I installed the driver only today, after the os runs for a week or so, but it doesn’t change anything. I understand that I did something wrong and that I needed to to it differently, but first I need to remove the driver so I can boot again

Hi everyone,
I recently bought a new laptop on which I installed Antergos. I installed the recent nVidia driver as I understood this is the one fitting my 920m (Judging by this Arch Wiki article).
Now I can’t boot the system and I have to remove it somehow, perhaps use the Live USB to mount it somehow and remove this driver - but I need a clear guide/documentation on how it can be done.Thanks to all who helps
