Okay, I will create a new bug as suggested and will link here and post this one as fixed. This one is technically fixed as stated because I am able to get full speed out of both video cards now, I just need to do the workaround to get it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a

Scott, you could file a new bug (against plasma-desktop) and mark this Fixed or Invalid. Or you could edit this report to describe the lack of "Launch on Discrete GPU" option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

I tried __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia steam and for the first time Steam showed the proper Nvidia card for the driver and also showed the proper 3GB for VRAM. I tried running cities skylines and instead of the 21FPS I was getting before I was getting what is

Yes, the output from glxinfo is what you want to see. If you want to run programs on the Nvidia GPU, you have to start them with the variables as in the glxinfo example. (Or if you make an alias, just use prime_run) prime_run -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

I tried the recommendations and it does not seem to change anything. I do not know if I am doing something wrong. When I do the glxinfo -B I do get the AMD like you mentioned and when I do the __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 I do get the proper nvidia information. I placed the outputs of both

Another thing to try: Change to "on-demand" mode. (I'm not sure, but this may require another reboot or log out): sudo prime-select on-demand Verification (first command should show AMD and second command Nvidia): glxinfo -B __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia glxinfo -B
