I have an HP pavilion dv6 3160us, and there's no option to switch to

not for mine.
I can't switch to the discrete card (ATI 5650), neither with the
proprietary, nor the free drivers. Both end in a blank boot screen and
segmentation fault.
Cheers.
That's odd. Muxed AMD+Radeon should be supported by recent proprietary
drivers.
