'VGA Switcheroo' currently only works on some laptops and does not offer the ease of use of Windows, as it only switches when X Server is restarted – something which is not expected to change in the near future."
Is Ubuntu 10.10 going to support this? Does anybody have plans for the user interface? I suppose the login screen should be extended with a UI element for switching between different graphics cards. Is it possible? Does it make sense? -- support graphics card hot switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312756 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
