Indeed. But I think the new nvidia-control lacks a possibility to "force" a state, something that e.g. Norbert now uses in his Intel/Nvidia switching script. I could add it there, too, but that means I need to distribute two modules instead of one. Then nvidia-control however has the advantage of being agnostic of laptop vendor, so it might work on other machines with nvidia/intel hybrid graphics solution. > > Mario _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series Post to : sony-vaio-z-series@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
