This implementation has become the recommended solution by openSUSE for handling multi-GPU systems, with the developers urging users to move away from outdated tools like SUSEPrime, Bumblebee, and bbswitch.

Ok. So is there a guide by them to show how to disable/remove Prime and switch to the new hotshot in town? Or - dare I say - will the OS do this automated?

I haven't seen anything, but I'm guessing you can just uninstall whatever you have now and start using it (assuming you're on a supported OS). It's been years since I've needed to do it though, so YMMV and definitely take a snapshot before messing with configs and things.

Sure. Sounds like lots of tinkering, though. My system works for the most part. If there's no fool proof way... I'll pass.

Until I must install fresh one day.
