["Usama al-Binni" <binnaeus@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi. I've had Ubuntu dual booting with Win7 on my machine for a while, but
was never able to get the nvidia to work. I tried the janitor script once
and it killed the Ubuntu. I've now been using F13 a while and think the
machine needs a fresh install of both OSs, but this time I'm hoping to have
the nVidia (and hopefully other features of the vaio z including graphics
switching) working. I'm not a linux guru, but I'm not a newbie either, could
anyone please recommend a place where there are clear steps of doing this.
In the process of doing this I've seen many people flash the bios with a
hacked version, is that necessary/safe? Thanks.
