Yes, the patch applies to allow static switching between video cards
(I've not been able to get Xorg to work properly using kernel tuning).
The BIOS patch worked very nice, but I would have prefer not to apply
it and use pure Linux settings.
I still have a drive outside the soft RAID volume, so I'll try to
install Maverick and let you know whether the dynamic switching works.

Hi Jean,
many thanks for the reply and all advice.
I'm sorry but I'm not a expert, then, why I can patched the bios? only
for the video card switch?
In my Sony VPCZ12X5E (2 SSD (64gb x 2) - 1920 resolution) Can I install
only ubuntu (10-10 beta) without any patch? I'm afraid to change the
bios...
@Martin: I don't undestand what do u mean...

Hi Expert,
i'm novel, and this is my first post on this community :-)
I have a Sony VPCZ12X5E with 2 SSD (64gb x 2) with 1920 resolution
monitor and 8 gb of RAM. I want use ubuntu as a normal desktop, I'll
work every day with this lapdop, but I don't want use windows ;-)
I'm reading on internet, that the linux installation, on this hw, is
not easy (path kernel etc.)
Can I install this ubuntu testing version? (Linux kernel 2.6.35) Ubuntu
10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) Alpha 3
I would like install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, but I'm terrified of problems
during installation.
Another question. I don’t want install 64bit, but a 32bit with a
big-kernel (8gb ram). Is it a problem?
What do u suggest me?
Many thanks to all.
Cheers,
Lain
