[linux] Problems with laptops with dual graphics cards (NVIDIA) (in: Bitwig)

Hi folks,

since the latest updates that render with the GPU, I was having trouble running Bitwig in my dual-GPU laptop. Bitwig tried to use the Intel card when the Nvidia one was in control of the screen. This resulted in a failed startup (blank window)

The solution is to set up an environment variable:

[code]export VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.json[/code]

then launch bitwig-studio normally. Leaving this post in case anyone has the same problem.
