Ieti, I have no problem with Optimus. It works fine for everything else and I know full well how to use it. The problem is with RO + Optimus. I have specified that ROlauncher.exe and ROClientGame.exe should both ALWAYS use the NVIDIA GPU (In fact, I've made it the default anyway, but I've also added a specific rule to be certain).

(I'll make a test to run RO on Linux using Bumblebee and see what that comes up with.)

EDIT: Ok, so I tested on my ArchLinux installation with Bumblebee and Nvidia driver 310.19 (which is just a bit older than 310.90 on my windows installation), and the GPU is detected properly by the launcher, as I remember it was back when I ran this game a few months ago on Linux. I will update this after I've ran it for a decent amount of time to post information on performance comparison.
