[Mactel-linux-users] linux support for GPU switching in latest Macbook Pro models

[mike d. <fl...@po...>]

Hello,

As you may know, some of the latest Macbook Pro models (MacbookPro6,2)
carry two graphical chips, one being Intel, the other being Nvidia.

While initially rumored to be powered by the Optimus Nvidia technology,
Switching between the two is actually done in software.

I've been trying to find information on potential Linux support for
this, but found nothing yet (other than one report saying the intel
graphics didn't even appear in the device list under GNU/Linux).

Does anyone have more information, and/or one of these new models? It
looks like people at http://linux-hybrid-graphics.blogspot.com/ could
use some dumps…

Thanks,
