I cannot find them in the Bumblebee database nor the Ironhide one. Please
note that the new
Bumblebee from Bumblebee-Project is a rewritten project aiming for better
stability and does
not contain the experimental ACPI calls by default (it's possible to use the
calls though).

The databases for MrMEEE/bumblebee and Ironhide can be found at
http://www.martin-juhl.dk/bumblebee/ and http://www.martin-juhl.dk/ironhide/

Regards,
Lekensteyn
