SOL = Shit out of luck

It depends on which gpu you have - if it's supported in kernel 4.8.12-12 then 
you're good; that's the latest kernel version in the unstable repo. If not, you 
would need to compile it yourself which is a PITA and I'm not sure how exactly 
you'd do it.

I did this to install bumblebee, turn off nvidia and get a much better battery 
life:
- Here is the official how to install bumblebee in Fedora 23 (dom0 is based on 
Fedora 23 afaik)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bumblebee
- Download bumblebee-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm and 
bumblebee-nonfree-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
wget 
http://install.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/yum/itecs/public/bumblebee/fedora23/noarch/bumblebee-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
wget 
http://install.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/yum/itecs/public/bumblebee-nonfree/fedora23/noarch/bumblebee-nonfree-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
- Copy both files over to dom0 (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/copy-from-dom0/)
- Install both rpm files in dom0
sudo dnf -y -nogpgcheck install 
- Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/bumblebee-nonfree.repo and 
/etc/yum.repos.d/bumblebee.repo and replace '$releasever' (or similar) with a 
fixed value of '23'
- I don't know why, but I had to import the gpg keys manually once again:
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-bumblebee-nonfree-public
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-bumblebeepublic
- Last step: Just install the packages like mentioned in the official howto
sudo dnf install bumblebee-nvidia bbswitch-dkms primus kernel-devel

Now you can repoot and check within dom0 if optimus is running and your nvidia 
gpu is off, which may take some seconds
# cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch
:01:00.0 OFF

Finished. Hope that helps.

It's impossible. It's a known bug with Xen and nVidia drivers past version 
3.19.xxx or something like that. See this thread: 
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/691565/geforce-driver-problem-on-centos-6-4-with-xen-installed/

The only way is to use Nouveau. Problem with that is, Nouveau doesn't support 
new-ish GPUs without upgrading to kernels past the current Qubes supported 
kernels. So, nvidia owners are SOL with Qubes atm.

My laptop has optimus, but I have long since disabled it in the bios and have 
just been using the intel graphics since it is so much easier than messing with 
bumblebee.

I don't need a games. 
Even if i'll buy a laptop without Optimus (with only a discrete card) - i have 
no idea how to use it with a driver from Nvidia site.

Hi. Qubes OS is not operating system for gaming. The optional nVidia Optimus 
VGA is (still) not working. Nvidia = blob.
