Ah, I just realized my email from yesterday got lost somewhere, so here
it is again:
Hi Adrian,
The reason why it might not work is that those instructions are quite a
bit outdated, sorry.
But I see you're using the BIOS boot with hacks to activate the intel
card, that could be a problem.
Also, the kernel you're using is pretty old, most of the gmux stuff is
already in mainline since 3.6, I tried 3.6 plus this patchset:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2012-September/027528.html
on my mbp 6,2 (booting with EFI) some time ago and it worked.
I hope this helps you at least a bit.
Cheers,
Andreas

I copy-and-paste the relevant parts from my previous email which could
be summarize to that I'm using the steps found here:
https://github.com/ah-/gmux-scripts
I'll take a look at the suggested patch set while waiting for your
reply. Thank you!
===
Compile and install the patched kernel
--------------------------------------------------------
git clone g...@github.com:ah-/ubuntu-kernel-mbp.git
cd ubuntu-kernel-mbp
git checkout gmux
fakeroot debian/rules clean
skipabi=true skipmodule=true fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep
skipabi=true skipmodule=true fakeroot debian/rules binary-perarch
skipabi=true skipmodule=true fakeroot debian/rules binary-mbp
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i *deb
Boot into the new kernel
-------------------------------------
At grub2 menu I select Previous operating systems and then the
3.2.0-18-mbp boot option.
Compile and install the apple_gmux switching driver
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
git clone https://github.com/ah-/gmux.git
cd gmux
make
sudo cp apple_gmux.ko
/lib/modules/3.2.0-18-mbp/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/apple-gmux.ko
...
WHAT DOES HAPPEN
==================
When I boot (Special previous version with special 3.2.0-18-mbp with
special parametres) I just get a blank screen. The screen seems more
grey than blank but whatever I cannot use for normal use. So I have to
use SSH to enter the machine.

Hi,
Which kernel version are you running, which which patches?
There are no usable VBIOS tables for the MBP 6,2, so you need to use
this patch set:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2012-September/027528.html
to switch the ddc lines during detection.
Cheers,
Andreas
