ASUS N53SV and asus-switcheroo

 

Hello.
I am using Ubuntu 11.04 at my new asus n53sv laptop. Today I installed
asus-switcheroo and rebooted system.
Now I am checking status of my video cards:

elkin@elkin-N53SV:~$ lspci | grep -i VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core
Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0df4 (rev ff)

elkin@elkin-N53SV:~$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
0:DIS: :Off:0000:01:00.0
1:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0

As we can see, nvidia's card is disabled. Trying to turn it on:
elkin@elkin-N53SV:~$ echo "ON" > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

Looking to logs:

Powered on but disabled. Trying to enable:
elkin@elkin-N53SV:~$ echo "DIS" > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

Looking to logs:

What's a problem? What does this means: [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PGRAPH:
unsupported chipset, please report!
