The new MacBook Pros have dual GPUs, I haven't managed to find info on using them in Ubuntu though. What is the current state of support for this feature?
I'm pretty sure Ubuntu doesn't support switching seamlessly between them and that it uses the more powerful GPU per default, but is it possible to switch to using the less power hungry one?
Maybe a section should be added to
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-5/Jaunty
There is a brainstorm idea on the topic:
