Re: Discrete-Power-Off on Acer Travelmate 8472TG doesn't work
Since it seems that the test wasn't successful, I attached the whole

I installed the bumblebee-git and apci_call-git AUR packages, added me
to group bumblebee, restarted the system and tried the commands you
told me.
Is my system more complicated? ;-)
