nVidia GPU won't turn off by default on Optimus laptop
Created by: andrebrait
Hey there
I own a Dell Vostro 5470 and I'm running Manjaro on it. Fresh install, 2 days old. I noticed that my nVidia card was turned on when I booted it up and I noticed bumblebeed had failed to unload the nvidia and nvidia-modeset modules. I then added blacklist nvidia-drm to the /etc/modprobe.d/mhwd-nvidia.conf and it solved the problem.
I'm a developer and I would submit a pull request with the blacklisted module added to the config file, but I can't seem to find the code responsible for adding the modules to that file.
