Tested it with jockey-gtk and jockey-common from oneiric-proposed. I have finally arrived at the satisfying announcement No Proprietary Drivers in use in this system, and it offered me nothing at all. Worth noting I have a bumblebee install now which might potentially complicate things, I guess

Well done! But this is rather a bug on th side of the nvidia driver. It's not so unusual to have several X drivers installed. Another example besides systems with two graphics cards is a (real) X client/server setup: Say you have (like us) a server and several different thin clients making X

Sorry, didn't read it properly. But I'm confused nevertheless. Did this change from Natty to Oneiric? Because like I said before I could use both GPUs in Natty with the help of Bumblebee, hence I could install nvidia-current and still keep using i915 and the same for X drivers... So officially in

Yes, this was introduced into oneiric. The current check might very well be too strong and err on the side of safety. You can of course still install the nvidia-current package manually. But even better would be if we would find a finer-grained condition when it's safe to offer the nvidia driver

Officially in *all* Ubuntu releases there's no way to use nVidia optimus. We don't support bumblebee/ironhide, so the result of installing the nvidia drivers will be to break your 3D. This isn't something that we should be recommending that users do, which is what Jockey was doing! If you're

Nuno, see the bug description. Installing the proprietary NVidia driver installs NVidia's libGL fork, which is not compatible with intel's. So while you configured the BIOS to use the intel card, you'd break your X.org by installing nvidia. -- You received this bug notification because you are a
