Hi,

I've just made a software that allows users with hybrid graphics to turn off discrete gpu via graphic interface.
It uses acpi_call, and gives notebooks long battery duration (up to 4 hours) and low temperature (20-30°).
theoretically, it will be simple for users that just want to have the same battery duration that they have in windows.

Here's a video that shows how to install and use my software: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h33bvoR14x8
And there's the program: https://github.com/marcoDallas/acpi_call_GUI

If you think that it could be useful add it to the Documentation!

Thanks.

Somehow this got lost in the wrong sub-forum.
