Are you sure you can't switch to discreet from BIOS on the dv6? It
should be in the 'advanced BIOS'. Try F10 + A to boot into advanced
BIOS. A have a dm4-1xxx series and it offers it even for a old muxed
intel+ati model. I thought all HP muxed ones work the same way.

Vgaswitcheroo "would should" work... but it doesn't.
My cards are: ATI Radeon HD 4250 and ATI Radeon HD 5650.
If you know something about this, please, let me know. Thanks.

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.
