Thanks Eric, even though I'm not on Ubuntu that is clear enough to
almost give me enough confidence to try it out.
Just wondering, why aren't instructions like yours somewhere on a
website right next to where folks first find out about using this
software?
I want my entire desktop to use my nvidia gfx so is it possible to
incorporate this with startx, or similar?

It's not on a website because it uses highly experimental code and
techniques that could put your machine in a less than ideal
configuration. If you're using an Optimus laptop as both your production
and testing machine like I am, you need to be able to handle those
situations. Besides, I prefer sharing new ideas through screencasts
since they better convey the concepts I'm trying to demonstrate.
If you want a desktop on the Nvidia card, the best way to do it is
starting a DE (Gnome-Shell, Unity, etc) on :8 and have windump
completely overlap the Intel desktop. All programs launched from the
Nvidia desktop will run on the GPU.
However, I don't know how to make all this happen as part of the boot
process.
