I have a Dell XPS L502X. I have been able to get acpi_call working - I think.
$ ./test_off.sh Trying \_SB.PCI0.P0P1.VGA._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.P0P2.VGA._OFF: failed Trying \_SB_.PCI0.OVGA.ATPX: failed Trying \_SB_.PCI0.OVGA.XTPX: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.P0P3.PEGP._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.P0P2.PEGP._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.P0P1.PEGP._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.MXR0.MXM0._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.PEG0.GFX0.DOFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0.DOFF: failed Trying \_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._OFF: works! >From this, I gather that only one of these lines needs to work. However, after copying bumblebee-disablecard.xps15 and bumblebee-enablecard.xps15 over the /usr/local/bin directory, where the placeholders were installed, I get this result: # bumblebee-enablecard WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.optiorig, it will be ignored in a future release. _PS0 Enabling nVidia Card failed (Error: AE_BAD_PARAMETER). WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.optiorig, it will be ignored in a future release. FATAL: Error inserting nvidia_current (/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko): No such device This is a bit perplexing, especially when there are .conf files without the .optiorig in that location. If I try to run optirun64 glxgears or glxinfo I get this: $ optirun64 glxgears [VGL] ERROR: Could not open display :1. Running glxgears or glxinfo without the optirun64 works. Does that mean it is running with the Intel GPU, but not with the nvidea? I'm still trying to figure this stuff out. Tia.
