> Though, there may be other considerations Just grasping this straw: perhaps un-stall those works on switchable drivers? The PR https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/3673 that I proposed a few years back worked well for the switcheroo part AFAIK, and the idea and implementation is extensible enough to support an arbitrary amount of nvidia driver-familyNumber packages served and installed, and would not contradict picking a new default one of those (340 => 390 for majority? No problem!) I could not test it further as the optimus setup in my HP Zbook G3 did not give me real graphics in neither of the nvidia drivers, nor in different intels, nor with vesa (that one at least gave me a black screen mode change, and an Xorg log of an apparently started login program). I am sadly not aware if anyone else played with that PR's code with a working graphics HW arrangement. I would still welcome any brave people to try that out :) Just check out current oi-userland, merge my source branch, probably point to current driver revisions for the numbered families (last touched this a couple of years ago...), and make your local repo packages, and install into a new BE clone for testing. Notably, IIRC this redefines what the "nvidia" named package is (from driver to "dispatcher"). I am currently AFK but might bring the versions bit into shape in a few days, if anyone wants...
