Re: Testers needed - intel/nvidia nouveau working with github.com/awilliam module

 

I have tried using the script and the asus-module on my Alienware M11X R2... 

There doesn't seems to be a mux in this computer, anything I can do??? 

martin@falcon ~ $ query_dsdt -d . -tokens VGA:EGP:OFF:ON | sort -nk1 
04 DSDT.dsl { EGP => 12 OFF => 1 ON => 16 VGA => 2 } 

martin@falcon ~ $ query_dsdt -d . 
03 DSDT.dsl { 0xA4, 0x24, 0x8D, 0x10, 0x08, 0x9D, 0x16, 0x53 => 1 0xA6, 0xFA, 0xDD, 0x3D, 0x1B, 0x36, 0xB4, 0x4E => 1 _DSM => 19 }

Hi Albert, and thank you for your work. 

I've been trying your switch method but I still can't make it work. 

Asus N82JV , 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 

Using Albert Vilella's perl script to look for tokens in the dsl file I get this (full dsl attached): 

$ perl query_dsdt.pl -d . | sort -nk1 | less 
03 DSDT.dsl { MXDS => 2 MXMX => 2 _DSM => 4 } 

$ perl query_dsdt.pl -d . -tokens VGA:EGP:OFF:ON | sort -nk1 | less 
04 DSDT.dsl { EGP => 2 OFF => 6 ON => 28 VGA => 16 } 


After echoing "DIS" to the switch file my screen just freezes (with or without HDMI or VGA monitor, plugging/unplugging, etc.) but the system responds (but I can see nothing). 

All I get on dmesg when I try to switch is: 

[ 82.447993] fbcon: Remapping primary device, fb0, to tty 1-63 
[ 82.609478] Disabling i915 lid notifier 
[ 82.609482] i915: switched off 


Thanks, 
André

Hi, 

There is a new module that provides hybrid graphics functionalities 
using the nouveau drivers. Both the Intel and Nvidia cards can be used 
with this method. It has been tested on an Asus UL30VT, but should 
work for the following laptop models: 

Asus.UL30VT 
Asus.UL50VT 
Asus.UL80VT.1.0 
HP.dm3 
HP.SLIC-MPC 
Lenovo.T410.2516CTO 
Lenovo.T410s 
Lenovo.T510 
Sony.Vaio.VPCZ136GG 
Sony.Vaio.VPCZ13V9E 
Sony.VGN-Z51XG 
Sony.VPCZ12C5E 

People with these laptop models willing to give it a try, please read 
the following and report back by replying to this email: 

https://github.com/awilliam/asus-switcheroo/blob/master/README 

git clone git:// github.com/awilliam/asus-switcheroo.git 
cd asus-switcheroo; make; modprobe -r nouveau; insmod 
./asus-switcheroo.ko; modprobe nouveau 

Cheers, 

Albert.
