Feature request: Be able to offload to Intel

[Raviu56]

Thanks so much for this gem tool.

Here is my inxi -G output

I'm using prime-select to use nvidia . I know about the current offload mode which allows me to run Intel and offload some programs to nvidia. I need the vise versa, run on nvidia and be able to offload some programs to intel graphics.

I've some use-cases where this could be very useful for me, one of them running 3D accelerated VMs on Intel card when I'm having busy nvidia card.

First you need to check with xrandr using --listproviders, --setprovideroutputsource, --setprovideroffloadsink options if this can be configured at all.

Even it is be possible, I'm rather reluctant to add such a feature. SUSEPrime already became rather complex and hard to maintain. I suggest to begin with a script for your needs using xrandr instead.
