"Out of the box" the Nvidia binaries get loaded fine (my xorg.log: http://paste.debian.net/113133/)
if I give "PCI:1:0:0" to BusID in the xorg.conf, but I've got blank console screen after the
X-Server fires up.

There is no bios switch like: "Only specific laptop models are able to switch to pre-Windows7
"compatible" BIOS mode so that the OS can see the nvidia graphics card. This is the only way to load
the nvidia binary drivers so far."

But I *can* load the Nvidia binaries, even that no chance to get my dGPU running?
