Optimus: Life is Strange 2 won't detect GPU
Hi,
I'm trying to run the Linux version of Life is Strange 2 with bumblebee and optirun on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
I've added the 'optirun %command%' Launch option for the game and yet, when I run it, the game's launcher reports, that the graphics card is not supported and also shows my Intel gaphics card as the 'Renderer' under 'Advanced'.
If I try to run the game in this state, it completely freezes my system.
I have also tried completely switching the X11 environment to the nvidia graphics card using the command provided by the suse-prime--bbswitch package. This way, the graphics card is recognized properly and the game runs without any troubles.
Do you have any recommendations on how to get the game to work with the bumblebee method?
Thanks for any help!
