# before using this script! It can be done by running: # | |
# # | |
# nvidia-xconfig -o /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia # | |
# # | |
# Make sure your system has eGPU connected and a monitor plugged into the GPU. # | |
# The reason I've never automated this is that you have to have it all plugged # | |
# in and ready to go. Also some may prefer writing xorg.conf.nvidia by hand. # | |

Since I've been using a lot of things changed, in particular now we have a libglvnd that allows us to have more than 1 libgl on our systems at once. So the dirty hack with uninstalling/installing the libgl is no longer needed, and I don't know what else is broken here.
