@rharish yeah, that was a typo. The PKGBUILD was incorrectly pinned to master instead of the version tag. Fixed now.

After six hours of tinkering with other options this is the only solution that actually worked practically out of the box on Thinkpad w520 with display brightness controls working with recommended kernel parameters (video.use_native_backlight=0 acpi_backlight=video nvidia-drm.modeset=1). Other ones had issues with either starting X (lots of different problems) or controlling backlight.
Thank you for your work.

@Askannz, since this package gets the latest commits from your repo, isn't it a duplicate of "optimus-manager-git"? Even the PKGBUILDs are extremely similar. Why not make this package download the source tarball from the latest release, and then build that one?

Thank you for the project! For some reason, last update does not seem to install the default optimus-manager.conf in /etc/optimus-manager/ (and the upgrade deleted the one that was already there).

@Askannz, many many thanks for this project, that is now in a rock solid version and make dual gpu management so easy ! When I install a new arch system with an Nvidia card, that's the package I install just after Nvidia package for solving all my drivers issues

Could you add nvidia as dependency?

Thank you, that did it.

The package just needs to be rebuild against the new Python version 3.8
So just rebuild and reinstall, then u should be fine.
Maybe @Askannz could consider bumping $pkgrel ?

Recent system updates cause this to fail to start the service, reverting to Intel GPU. https://pastebin.com/eMndneSy
