A simple indicator for Optimus Laptop.
It shows the bumblebee icon if bumblebee is in use, the NVIDIA icon if Xorg was started with nvidia-xrun or the Intel icon if the NVIDIA dGPU is turned off.
It was meant to be used with both bumblebee and nvidia-xrun on Debian.
If you are interested in this kind of configuration you may like my other projects nvrun and nvidia-xrun meant to be used with this setup.
- optimus-indicator - uses following dir structure:
- /usr/bin/optimus-indicator - the executable python3 script
- /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/icons/intel.svg - the icon for gGPU turned off
- /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/icons/bumblebee.svg - the icon for gGPU turned on using
optirun/primusrun/nvrun - /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/icons/nvidia.svg - the icon for gGPU turned on and used by Xorg
- /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/check-gpu - a script to check if NVIDIA card is turned on
- /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/check-nvidia-method - a script to check if NVIDIA card was waked by
bumblebeeornvidia-xrun
NB You can install optimus-indicator script anywhere but the other files need to be in the direcory /usr/lib/optimus-indicator/.
The Debian package (not tested on other distros) can be downloaded here.
