input-remapper VS optimus-manager

I got my G29 working, but I am using a T-LCM which isn't correctly recognized. I installed Input Remapper but it's not recognized.

Perhaps GitHub - sezanzeb/input-remapper: 🎮 ⌨ An easy to use tool to change the behaviour of your input devices. will do?

OK, I will byte, have you tried Input Remapper[1] ?

I think most of your problem is coming from using Rocky Linux, it is much easier to find support on Ubuntu derivatives for tools made by the community in general.

- Input Remapper: Custom hotkeys & remapping of keys (with Wayland support)

Then you can use something like input-remapper to do whatever you want.

Ask upstream?

However I want my system to be automatically remapped at boot. Input Remapper installs a systemd service by default and I found that someone wrote an OpenRC init script for it, so I created a file called input-remapper in etc/init.d, copied the text of the script into it, saved it, then used chmod +x on it, so it has the same attributes as other init scripts.

Read: NVIDIA Optimus AND optimus-manager documentation thoroughly.

Use Nvidia to render everything. You can easily do this with programs such as Optimus Manager or Envycontrol (I recommend the latter if you're on wayland). You can set it so that when you're on charger, laptop boots with the Nvidia (dedicated) mode and when you're on battery it boots with integrated mode (if you do this, read the wiki about Nvidia as you're going to possibly experience nvidia-related issues).

I have installed optimus-manager few hours back(I'm in NVIDIA propitiatory). Read this https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager/wiki/A-guide--to-power-management-options and came to understand that manual configuration is necessary for turning off the nvidia card completely. Tried : Configuration 1 : dynamic power management inside the NVIDIA driver (Runtime D3 power management) Configuration 4 : acpi_call. But none is completely turning off the NVIDIA card even though I ran optimus-manager --switch integrated (applicable to only config 4).

What you meant was optimus-manager program and you should look at https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager for instructions with that method of using Nvidia Optimus, but you should also look at instructions for other methods for Nvidia Optimus too, especially PRIME-Render Offload one, because you can find important things for power management at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME#PCI-Express\_Runtime\_D3\_(RTD3)\_Power\_Management , because you have a Turing GPU and Tiger Lake CPU, and method for Nvidia Optimus you mentioned and want to use is best supported with gdm, sddm and lightdm display managers and you may want to look at other Nvidia Optimus methods.

-Refer to this: https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager for help with other display managers or issues

Just asking because I wanted to give some advice and it would be different between a desktop and laptop. There are some options to manager graphics through a gui like optimus manager. PopOS also comes with some extensions to manage it out of the box. You can also look at using Lutris for gaming, you can use it to make every game launch with your discrete gpu by default.

Hello, I am a newbie to Intel-nvidia-hybrid laptop. My issue is that I cannot use Nvidia dGPU for my favourite apps. I have tried Optimus Manager and Envycontrol but both of them breaks my system. I am using HP Envy laptop with Nvidia gtx 1650 ti maxq. Thank you!
