Message #00576
Re: owner of Dell please read
I did that. their online manual even says there is a way to switch of the
integrated graphics but in the real bios there isn't that option
when you contact support they tell you they dont support linux. nvidia also
said they not going to bring switching to linux. so basically we are on our
own.
if u can, return the laptop. by some sheer luck, my integrated graphics card
does not show in lspci. only the discrete one. so i can run the nvidia card.
although i have a few problems
