I boot into any of Adam's kernels (including the new 2.6.37-6-vaioz), with
the switch set to Stamina, and lspci still shows the nvidia card, and even
with laptop-tools all setup I'm still using around 22W (according to
powertop).  So I suppose the nvidia card is still activated?  How do I
switch it off?

Thanks!
