Nouveau + Bumblebee, a step closer
Hi there:
Today I've tested how bumblebee would work on the open nouveau driver.
Surprisingly it performed decent, I've been able to play UrbanTerror (a
Quake3-like FPS) very fluently with high quality graphics in full
screen.
I'm working on an implementation to be used at minimum configuration.
The nouveau allow to switch seamlessly with vga-switcheroo.
So... here we have almost complete a free solution to Optimus. I'll
document my findings in the ArchWiki soon and try to release a PKGBUILD
for Arch. Will need some help to port it to others distros.
