Ok, so it turns out I had noob'd it up and just had to install the
linux-headers-generic to be able to build the module. I got that set up, then
I did 'sudo insmod acpi_call.ko'. After that, I did "echo "\OSGS 0x01" >
/proc/acpi/call" to activate the Intel graphics. I then edited the xorg.conf
to read:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "intel"
VendorName "Intel GMA 3150"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
finally, I did this as per a tutorial :
cp /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.intel
ln -s -f /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.intel
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
update-alternatives --set i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf
ldconfig
Note: I changed the i386 to x86_64 on my system.
finally, I rebooted and now when I do 'lspci -nn':

NVIDIA is not in the list anymore, BUT my system settings still say I am on
the fallback driver. My LCD also seems less bright.
