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 savvy enough to install bumblebee/ironhide, then installing the nvidia_current package without Jockey shouldn't be hard. We're not preventing you from ‘apt-get install nvidia_current’, we're preventing Jockey from suggesting that the user do something that's guaranteed to break their system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885204 Title: Recommending proprietary driver on hybrid systems can break 3D To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/885204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
