Hello,
I bought a Asus N53SN recently, no way to activate/desactivate graphics cards in the BIOS till now (BIOS 206), whereas it seems to be possible on thinkpad laptops first install of bumblebee from ppa didn't worked for me, I didn't took the time yet to make it work, hope it will I had to install a recent kernel (2.6.35) on ubuntu 10.04 to have at least full resolution on the intel graphic card

Hello,
I would like to know if people on this list use a NVidia graphic card with Optimus on Linux and Gem and tell us if they encounter problems ? I would like to buy a new laptop but i read in different forum that NVidia doesn't plan to develop a driver on Linux using this technology. I also read that this technology with i5 Sandy Bridge and NVidia GT 540 might suffer of throttling (that could be a big issue in a peformance using Pd and Gem). I am looking for a good laptop to use Gem with a weight< 2.2 kg. Thanx. ++
