The driver knows nothing about the hotkey switch. It doesn't
even have a way to know that a switch occurred. It's all done by
the bios which is the only reason the switch even partially works.
Maybe the "Font" key might change things a little, but the
core of the matter is that hot key switching is beyond the nv
driver's capabilities.
