Yes. I've looked, just have not tried installing primus yet. Also, I looked at using bumblebee. Going to try disabling in BIOS first, then I'll try primus then bumblebee. In BIOS I can change graphics to discrete instead of hybrid. I'll test each of them. Figured I would send a message to list first, before looking at other roads. I though perhaps maybe a config option in xorg.conf needed to be tweaked. Also, just to clarify where you say "connected monitors", I don't have any external monitors attached to the P70 laptop, currently just using the laptop display. Also, I'm not really concerned about battery at the moment. As this laptop is 90-100% always connected to AC power source.
