I have found a way to use the nvidia card in machines WITHOUT the optimus mux... There are still a few flaws... but in my regard they are few... First of all I have this running on my Alienware M11X R2, on Ubuntu Natty 11.04 64-bit.. And haven't tried it on any other configurations.. so I hope you can report back, if it works on other laptops (it should) and other distributions.... Here it goes: First of all download the following: General: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/xorg.conf 32-bit deb-based: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/turbojpeg_1.11.1_i386.deb http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/ VirtualGL_2.2.1_i386.deb 64-bit deb-based: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/turbojpeg_1.11.1_amd64.deb http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/VirtualGL_2.2.1_amd64.deb 32-bit rpm-based: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/turbojpeg-1.11.i386.rpm http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/VirtualGL-2.2.1.i386.rpm 64-bit rpm-based: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/turbojpeg-1.11.x86_64.rpm http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/ VirtualGL-2.2.1.x86_64.rpm Source: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/turbojpeg-ipp-1.11.1.tar.gz http://www.martin-juhl.dk/optimus/ VirtualGL-2.2.1.tar.gz Files can also be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualgl/files/ Ok... Installation: Start by installing the nvidia driver: sudo aptitude install nvidia-current (ubuntu) then put the xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ after that, install the two files you downloaded above: sudo dpkg -i turbojpeg* VirtualGL* (deb) or sudo rpm -ihv turbojpeg* VirtualGL* (rpm) Now run: sudo vglserver_config answer as below: 1) Configure server for use with VirtualGL in GLX mode 2) Unconfigure server for use with VirtualGL in GLX mode X) Exit Choose: 1 Restrict 3D X server access to vglusers group (recommended)?

Hopefully your computer comes back up.. now you should be able to start applications with: vglrun <application> and the nvidia card will be used for acceleration.. btw. <application> needs to contain the full path to the application if not in the path... It is still the Intel card running the rest.. and for now I haven't found a way to activate acceleration for both cards.. so no fancy compiz effects.. but thats no problem for me, as long as I can use my nvidia card for gaming :D... Hope this will help someone.. /MrMEEE aka Martin Juhl... _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux Post to : hybrid-graphics-linux@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux Post to : hybrid-graphics-linux@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux Post to : hybrid-graphics-linux@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
