[ubuntu] Asus UL30VT hybrid video card - Ubuntu Forums

    Re: Asus UL30VT hybrid video card
    you can check the /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you have any.

    you probably use the intel card.

    to get the nvidia card to work you have to do this:

    this is how you get g210m to work on ubuntu 9.10 / 10.04.

    1. download and install nvidia drivers. (i have only tested the
ones in the repos)

    2. make sure you got an Xorg.conf that is correct. ( if not, run
nvidia-xconfig )

    3. reboot into bios (press delete while booting)

    4. change the SATA option in the bios from enhanced to
compatibility. ( yea, this makes sense? NOT! )

    5. boot into linux and smile!
