Re: NVidia Optimus and Asus U30JC

 

I think the first ones to hit the street will be:
ASUS N61Jv / N71Jv / N82Jv / UL50Vf

There is now one Linux user who with a ASUS N71Jv. I contacted him and
asked for a DSDT.dsl file:

airlied and mjg59, can I ask you what sort of info could be useful for
developers to have Nvidia Optimus working in Linux?

Cheers,

Albert.
