Hi all.. 

I have just found a way to get some more performance from our nvidia card: 

My guide can still be found at: http://www.martin-juhl.dk or https://github.com/MrMEEE/prime-ng 

This "more performance"-hack is now added to the guide... 

If you are already up running then just make the following changes: 

Add to your ~/.bashrc: 

VGL_COMPRESS=jpeg 
export VGL_COMPRESS 

Now you need to make sure that your Desktop Enviroment runs the following command after starting up.. 

vglclient localhost & 

In KDE this is archived by creating: ~/.kde/share/autostart/vglclient.desktop (you might need to create the autostart folder as well):

I also get mirrored display but only in some programs in some 
situations, and not all of the desktop. :) 
But this happens only with the latest ATI that I just downloaded. 

Every application is normal but firefox-trunk. I have two firefox 
installations. 

So if I run this 
MOZ_GLX_IGNORE_BLACKLIST=1 firefox-trunk 
will make the client area mirrored, while 
firefox-trunk 
runs normal 

On the other hand 
MOZ_GLX_IGNORE_BLACKLIST=1 firefox 
is normal, and 
firefox 
is again normal
