yeah, I've tried vga-switcheroo. It doesn't work for nvidia cards yet, just ATI. The author doesn't have access to an nvidia machine. I'm guessing the release of optimus will also decrease the...
Not that I'm aware of. I'm in the process of getting arch to work and trying to talk to David Arlie about getting the vga switcheroo stuff working for it. I might end up also virtualizing Linux if...
Not that I've seen. You can only force the nvidia card to be the main one.
It's because both the intel and the nvidia graphic card are active. Until the gpu_switcheroo works for this model we won't get near the same battery life. I'm sure there's a few tweaks to get some...
got brightness on switchable working:
as root:
edit /etc/default/grub. change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset...
Got the sound working. Looks like the only working driver at the moment for the ALC665 is on the realtek site here. Just need to download the Linux driver, extract it and follow the instructions on...
Looks like Dave Airlie has been working on creating a way to switch the graphics without rebooting. He calls this vga_switcheroo, which looks to be merged into the next kernel, 2.6.34. Looks like...
[QUOTE=raoul1219;8889633]the only no go for me is a UK keyboard since i live in Switzerland and we have a different layout here. is the keyboard 100%size or 98% ?/QUOTE]
The keyboard is probably...
Ok, I have Ubuntu running on it. It looks like switchable = Intel and discrete = NVIDIA. If you try to install the nvidia closed source driver and it's set to switchable it will cause a kernel...
Wattos has created a java program called AlienFX Lite to change the lights. It doesn't have anything specific for the M11x yet, but I'm sure once he gets input from someone with one it'll have the...
Mine is coming in on Friday, although I might not be there to sign for it. I'll be testing the latest Ubuntu, Back Track 4, and Gentoo on it. The main thing I'm worried about is that it might be...
It's an ultra portable gaming laptop. Netbooks are all atom processor or old pentium based. Of course, the way the netbook name is going we'll see a 17" netbook before long. With this one you can...
Hardware Heaven did a review of the M11 here. In some of the pictures posted there was one of the BIOS Screen. Looks like the graphics are switchable in the bios, which means the graphics part...
I'm also eyeing this machine, although I would dual boot it. (Windows for games, Linux for everything else). I did some research about switchable graphics/gpus.. I think the 335M will run fine,...
AHCI controls advanced SATA II features, such as native command queuing and hot swapping. It has nothing to do with power management. However, ACPI does.
If you're turning off ACPI instead of...
It's mostly due to the manufacturing costs involved in making ram modules that dense. In a Desktop, you can just double the size of the RAM modules and stick more memory chips on it. Unfortunately...
Wonder what the battery life is on it.. and if they're planning on putting one of those ubuntu logos on the lid.
Any teasers Thomas? It's not a Z series Atom processor is it?
The atom processor that it uses is 32bit, not 64.
I'd also be interested in hearing if System76 is still going to go forward and put out a netbook
From what I remember, in the restricted driver setup, you have the option to use driver 177 or 173 (or 163 or something like that). The 177 driver is the one with the funky terminal problems. ...
What's the battery life on this notebook? Any other system76 systems planning on being released in the next two months or so? (Read a bit that y'all may also have a netbook device coming out soon?)
Hey, does anyone know what the battery life on the Darter is with the 4 cell and the 8 cell battery? Also does anyone have any pictures of it with the 8 cell? And finally, is it possible to order...
I'm currently using a laptop and occasionally connect it to a 24" monitor. What I want to do is have my laptop monitor always been Screen0. Right now if I plug a monitor into it, that becomes...
