Hello BB, optirun seems to be functioning correctly now.

My steps:
1. Removed /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf and
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf.
2. Blacklisted nvidia..
3. Reinstalled nvidia via my distro's package manager (pacman).

However, I'm not quite sure what caused this behavior..

Thank you again,
deca
