oh, ok.. so i thought.. pitty. i have Quadro K1000M in my notebook, so not very old and not new. The thing is, if i start in descrete-card mode, i have some strange grafic boot, but the system runs well. Runs there the Nvidia card, but with nouveau-driver?? as it seems, yes. is Nvidia in nouveau-mode then better than the intel card? not really, isn't it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
