[Chessplayer <chessplayer60@xxxxxx>]

Hi Lekensteyn,

sorry, forgot the obvious: I am running Ubuntu 11.10 (and can boot 11.04 
in parallel if need be). On the 11.04 I already have ironhide (at least 
I think it's ironhide, not bumblebee anymore) installed, but it is the * 
automatic * switching I am looking for (probably like most everybody 
else). Nonetheless, you are right, of course, bumblebee/ironhide are a 
good alternative in the meantime.

Cheers,

chessplayer
