Re: Laptop Model

 

Hi,
There is a module that allows switching off/on nvidia card on
UL30Vt and similar notebooks:

I couldn't get it working for my N61Jv (with geforce gt325m),
and I wonder if you will have better luck ;) If you do, please
share a way to properly install the module and tell if it is
notebook/gpu specific. I can provide any info you want, just
ask :)

Regards,
D3X
