GIMP not utilizing NVIDIA GPU on Manjaro Linux
#1
Hello, I'm running GIMP on the following setup:
  • OS: Manjaro Linux x86_64
  • DE: Plasma 5.27.11
  • Host: OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dc1xxx
  • Kernel: 5.15.154-1-MANJARO
  • CPU: Intel i7-9750H (12) @ 4.500GHz
  • GPU: Intel CoffeeLake-H GT2 [UHD Graphics 630]
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Mobile / Max-Q
  • Memory: 3296MiB / 15804MiB
I have OpenCL, OpenGL (EGL), OpenGL (GLX), Vulkan, and optimus-manager installed.

I've tested GIMP both in hybrid and NVIDIA modes with LTS 5 and 6 kernels.


When I run:

prime-run gimp
or
DRI_PRIME=1 gimp

GIMP doesn't appear in nvidia-smi, indicating that it's not utilizing the GPU.

I've enabled OpenCL with gimp --show-playground and other settings, but still no luck.


Question:

Is this a problem that can be resolved, or does GIMP only utilize the CPU and not the GPU? The issue is that GIMP has very poor performance when handling layers; it's excessively slow.

Thank you for your assistance with this.
