Re: Nvidia/Intel switching nightmare.

 

I have forgotten the hardware acceleration stuff.

Nvidia driver overwrites libglx.so and libGL.so.1 with symbolic links like 
mentioned above. So before installing nvidia driver, backup the current 
libglx.so und libGL.so.1 to libglx.so.INTEL/libGL.so.INTEL. If you have 
already installed nvidia, you can get the original files from "xserver-xorg-
core" package, respectively "libgl1-mesa-glx".

Greets, Klaus
