Re: HDMI Audio and nVidia Optimus (on Dell L502X)

 

Hello Steve,

My L502X seems to be working under uBuntu. Nothing special. I just seems to
work now, and several of us have added our scripts to the project. Add
http://ppa.launchpad.net/mj-casalogic/bumblebee/ubuntu to your repositories
and watch the scripts for questions you must answer.

Enjoy!
