Hi,
I suppose a better way of explaining why watching /proc/acpi/bbswitch

Hi,
By the way, with bumblebee + primus installed, you still will want to
recommend users to call apps with the optirun interface.
primus just sets some library variables and calls the application. The
application is never run on the discrete nvidia card.
Errr, no. As I understand it,
