First of all thanks to Pete Eberlein!!!


1) I have ubuntu 10.10 installed on an Asus Eee PC 1215n. I installed the nvidia driver proposed by ubuntu, but it doesn't work whatever the "Optimus state" set using the asus1215.sh script. Could somebody explain me how I could manage the nvidia driver to works ?


2) I don't understand why, but it seems that the power consumption is higher when the GPU is off ???
