Introduction
There are additional steps needed to integrate the package with optimus.
Also note that NVIDIA currently only support "outputsource" and not "offloadsink". It means that you cannot disable the dGPU (nvidia). The current workaround is to reboot onto the free Software version using an alternative grub2 boot menu.
!!! BIG FAT WARNING - This is still experimental documentation, only experimented users should follow.
GLVND enabled mesa
This will enable a version glvnd enabled mesa that will replace the fedora version.
Note: Copr is not multilib compliant, you need to copy the x86_64 repo as a new file and replace "arch" to i386, if using 32bit programs.
dnf copr enable kwizart/glvnd dnf update
KMS for nvidia
Enable Kernel Mode Setting for nvidia-drm, this is needed for buffer sharing with the intel adapter:
grubby --update-kernel=$(uname -r) --args="nvidia-drm.modeset=1" --remove-args="video=vesa:off" [ -f /boot/grub2/grub.cfg ] && grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg [ -f /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg ] && grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
Additional Configuration
For Fedora 24 and later, you still need a xorg.conf:
Please verify to Update the BusID earch GPU, specially for the nvidia device.

FAQ
- Q: Why there is no nvidia-prime package ?
- A: nvidia-prime is not something from NVIDIA despite the name. It's a collection of integration scripts made by canonical for Ubuntu. Best would be to avoid using custom scripts and to have the driver to setup appropriately if on optimus hardware or single GPU setup.
