# Module used for power switching. Possible values : nouveau, bbswitch, none
# If you select "none", no power switching will be done at all (the Nvidia GPU will stay powered
# at all times).
# Also note that if you use bbswitch, you will not be able to use video outputs attached to
# your Nvidia GPU in Intel mode.
# To use the bbswitch mode, the bbswitch module must be installed for your current kernel. You can install
# it for the default kernel with "pacman -S bbswitch".
switching=bbswitch


# Enable PCI power management in Intel mode.
# If you do not enable this option, you may see a higher power comsumption.
# This option is incompatible with bbswitch and will be ignored if bbswitch is enabled.

# Automatically log out the current desktop session when switching GPUs.
# At the moment this is only supported for Gnome, KDE Plasma and Xfce.
# If this options is disabled or you use a different desktop environment,
# GPU switching only becomes effective at the next graphical session login.
