I am under the impression that the best antivirus programs that work without account is Eset and Kaspersky.

Is there is a better solutions?

        seriously speaking, Arch is kinda DIY distro, if you’re noob in using linux, better use another distro

            Optimus as in Nvidia Optimus? I remember struggling with that under Linux in 2013. I would have thought it was supported by now. (Unless of course it’s another “Optimus”, in which case just ignore me.)

              Yes exactly, also my Laptop has a bug where booting any mainline Linux kernel would make the PC Linux error logger(I believe it’s called logd) to use 80% of the CPU without stopping( I have to boot the kernel with this parameter “PCI=nomsi”, for reason or another that is not the case on Libre Linux, also the PC overheat due to the GPU being turned on forever, I actually was keeping up with using Linux on this device till systemd boot loader broke( I was using Clear Linux) and I did not have a lot of time to fix it.

              Overall trying Linux on this laptop had made me understand that there is no way to use my PC on Linux currently.

                Damn. I would probably try a more mainstream distro for Optimus support, like Pop_OS! or Debian/Ubuntu with non-free repos enabled.
                I remember Bumblebee was a thing back in 2013, but it seems that it hasn’t been updated since then: https://www.bumblebee-project.org/

                  Syestemd boot loader breaking made me really hate using Linux, I may try again in 2-3 years to see if it works in a “plug and play” manner, hopefully at that time Wayland would be the default and maybe chimera or serpent os could have released their beta iso.
