This will give you nvidia optimus support in Linux:
https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee

ie do something like:

mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee.git
cd bumblebee
sudo ./install.sh

Note that you can uninstall it if you want via the ~/src/bumblebee
/install-files/bumblebee-uninstall script.

bumblebee uses the Intel card for normal graphics and VirtualGL to use
the nvidia card if you run the application preceding it with optirun64
(or optirun32 for 32 bit applications like wine). It works great on my
i7 + 540M!
