Hi Heikki,

Since you are using Ubuntu, you could just use the existing (and I
guess preferred) alternatives system, like I have done in my attached
/usr/local/sbin/vaioz-gfx-config:


#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.

set_alternatives_to_intel()
{
        echo "Intel card active."
#       For Ubuntu 11.04
#       update-alternatives --set gl_conf /usr/lib/mesa/ld.so.conf
#       For Ubuntu 11.10
        update-alternatives --set x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf
        ldconfig
        return 0
}

set_alternatives_to_nvidia()
{
        echo "NVidia card active."
#       For Ubuntu 11.04
#       update-alternatives --set gl_conf /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf
#       For Ubuntu 11.10
        update-alternatives --set x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf
/usr/lib/nvidia-current-updates/ld.so.conf
        ldconfig
        return 0
}


modprobe sony-laptop 2>/dev/null

if [ -e /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/speed_stamina ]
then
        [ "$(cat /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/speed_stamina)" =
"stamina" ] && set_alternatives_to_intel || set_alternatives_to_nvidia
fi

exit 0
