run test_on.sh before reboot

 

the test_off.sh script is repeatably unsuccessful on my machine if i try to
run it after a reboot.  i lose the ability to turn the discrete card off or
on; loading/unloading the acpi_call module does not help.  however, it will
run successfully if i shutdown and then manually power the machine back on.
the most interesting part is that running a "test_on.sh" script prior to
rebooting solves this problem.

my machine is a sager np5160 (aka clevo w150hnq).  it has an i7 sandy bridge
2630QM processor and an nvidia 540m.  i know of another user with the same
machine who is experiencing similar symptoms.
