I do have a quick question, if you don't mind. If the nvidia drivers installed correctly then how come when I go to About this Computer it still says for graphics I'm using Intel Ivybridge Mobile?...
SOLVED: Sorry guys after a little more hunting I found out that the issue is because of Wow-64.exe. All I had to do is rename this file (Wow-64old.exe) and then just run Wow.exe with wine (wine...
Hey guys! Right before I got rid of Windows 8 I copied my WoW folder and placed it under /home/brandon/. With the help of a community member I was able to get my graphics card working as well. When I...
Yesssss, you're amazing thank you!
Thank you! Any idea on how that would work with Wine? I'm trying to run a game (WoW) and it only detected my Intel integrated card as well. Thank you again very much for taking the time to help me...
I went ahead and ran this and rebooted afterwards following the guide:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bumblebee/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia primus...

Thank you very much for replying!
After spending a few hours of trial and error I finally figured out how to just dual boot Windows 8 and Ubuntu. I actually had to enable Secure Boot and disable...
UPDATE: So I had a strange idea to not only make a new bootable USB using UNetbootin but to also enable Secure Boot. For whatever reason it finally decided to cooperate with GRUB and the installation...
Hey guys! I have Windows 8 and I'm trying to dual boot with Ubuntu. However, I can't even seem to boot into Ubuntu. Earlier I was able to make an installation on a thumb drive with no problem. Now...
Hello everyone! I'm a Windows 8 user and from everything I gather it's near impossible to dual boot with Windows 8 and Ubuntu (Unless I'm wrong) and both work correctly. I used the Universal USB ...

Thank you so much for responding. Some good news is that I just ditched Crunchbang and went with Ubuntu! I used the Universal USB Installer on one thumb drive, then disabled Secure Boot + Fast Boot,...
Hello everyone! I'm trying to install a debian based system (Crunchbang) and I'm thinking about trying Ubuntu but I'm worried I'm going to run into the same issue because of Grub. Here's a quick...
