I've been screwing with my Nvidia drivers on my laptop to try to get optirun to allow me to run games and such using my dedicated graphics rather than my integrated graphics. I've solved a lot of issues, but I've come to a issue I can't figure out.



optirun will execute without any visible errors, but will nonetheless open no new window for the things I'm trying to run with optirun.



For example:



$ optirun glxgears


produces no output in the terminal (until I kill it with CTRL + C), but also does not actually open the glxgears window showing the little spinning gears.



Output of optirun -vv glxgears:



$ optirun -vv glxgears

[ 1202.847525] [INFO]Running application using primus.

Computer specs, if that even matters:



  • Dell XPS 9570

  • Graphics Card is a 1050Ti.

Any help is appreciated.
