My laptop uses a hybrid graphics hardware.
Using the vgaswitcheroo I am able to power off either card and switch between them correctly.
The issue is that the system wakes up/resumes from suspend correctly only when using the discrete graphics, or atleast the discrete graphics must be powered on even if the display is connected to the onboard intel card.
Has anyone faced this issues?
This tutorial is going to show you how to turn on/off the discrete nVidia graphics card on nVidia Optimus Ubuntu laptop.
For now, nVidia Optimus doesn’t support Linux system.

Hey, just would like to know people's opinions here. I've never bought a laptop before, or a pre-built computer (only ever built my own towers), so I have a few questions.
1) Is it worthwhile to mess with Nvidia graphics drivers and graphic card switching, etc..., on a Linux laptop? Is the performance increase huge, hows the battery life, etc...
I have ubuntu 13.04 64 bits
I've tried a lot of things before posting here, but none have worked.
This is my problem: I tried to play TF2, but the colors were wrong (blue screen with some other colors dispersed, I could tell that game itself worked only graphics were messed up).
I need the right drivers for my card.
On windows I have a dual monitor setup. I have one monitor connected directly to the motherboard, running off of Intel HD 4000 graphics. I have another monitor connected directly to my Radeon HD 7850. I can simply install both drivers and they will not conflict with each other.
I was wondering if this would be possible to setup under Ubuntu.
I'm running into an issue when I attempt to enable Dual Head graphics on a system with Intel integrated Sandy Bridge graphics. By default, XOrg uses both monitors in a single extended desktop,... [by danoinct]
Well as it says in the question title, I'm running a Lenovo-B570, I have an Intel HD Graphics 3000 integrated card, and inside the graphics thing it says Unknown, and Standard experience, I have tried doing other things I have seen on AskUbuntu but, once I get other drivers to show up, it starts to get choppy, and a lot of my drivers stop working, not to mention my sidebar icons and such go invisi
