I have a Dell 14z laptop. That has Nvidia Optimus technology. $ lspci | grep -i vga 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 1050 (rev a1)
Currently the system loads the nouveau and i915 drivers. I haven't installed the nvidia driver. I want to use the laptop for running training courses, so I'll be using the Mini DisplayPort to plug it into random projectors. The first time I tried that, the new monitor wasn't detected so I couldn't get the projector working. I know there's the Bumblebee project for dealing with Optimus, but at this stage I'm not really interested in switching between the two video cards, I just want to get the Mini DisplayPort working. There's also an HDMI output - I haven't tried that yet, but most projectors that I come across don't have HDMI inputs (perhaps I need a better class of client!) If anyone has any suggestions how I can get the DisplayPort working under Fedora 16, I'd love to hear them. Happy, of course, to supply any further information that might help.
