Hi, I have the same issue.

Right now I'm using the Intel driver with the deb package that allow
to shut down the nvidia card at boot time.
I don't know wether or not the Fast Button is working with this
package, perhaps not, because the kernel does not seems to trap the
event when I test it.
Nevertheless, powertop show that the consumption is < 10 Watts, and
without the package it's more than 14 Watts.

For using the nvidia driver, it seems that there is no solution right
now. I cannot find anyone that have the nvidia driver working with
Linux, some people with Sony laptop had successfully used the edid
workaround to identify the screen.  As I don't have anymore windows 7,
I cannot extract it and test (I've try with read-edid, but
unsuccessfully).

I send a bug report to nvidia as Albert suggested without any response
right now.

So remove the nvidia driver from your xorg.conf file and you should be
able to use Linux but without 3D acceleration (so no compiz).

Hope that helps,

-éric
