My System Info

Linux Distribution: Manjaro
Desktop Environment: Gnome
Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce 940MX
GPU Driver Version: 510.68.02

Have you checked for system updates?: [Yes]

If this is to do with Steam, please add your system read-out from Steam -> Help -> System Information (please put that into Pastebin/Gist as linked above!):

If this is not Steam, you can still give us a system readout using inxi with "inxi -SbCGxx" in terminal (please put that into Pastebin/Gist as linked above!): https://pastebin.com/embed_js/ViPVzrnX

I have an Acer Aspire E15 (E5-575G-57D4) with a Nvidia Geforce 940MX.

Literally any game other I have tried worked at least, weather or not it was lag free was up to the games requirement. And before you ask yes I have tried: https://github.com/FlaareZero/Kingdom_Hearts_Collection_Linux/blob/main/how_to.md I have tried anything I could find, I even tried different distros and the closet I can get is no picture, but only sound. and the occasional screen turns a different color.

I'm at my wits end I've been trying for over a year to get it to work on Linux. It works on Windows for sure, but I'm since Switch from Windows to Linux. Maybe there's something I'm missing, was hoping someone else had a good idea or something. If you need anymore info I'll be happy to provide it. Thank you.

Quoting: GuestYou are not using the Nvidia Driver, it's using Intel as seen in your inxi log

36. OpenGL: renderer: Mesa Intel HD Graphics 620 (KBL GT2) v: 4.6 Mesa 22.0.3

I myself do not own a Laptop with dual Graphics so I'm not the best person to answers this but don't you need to install and use nvidia-prime or something like that?

Thanks for pointing that out, I just switched my distro so I guess things weren't configured correctly. Switching it back as we speak and will setup the drivers correctly, hopefully that was the problem, but not too confident.

I installed nvidia-prime, and it unfortunately didn't work still can launch the game with sound, but no picture,
