I don't see how you can switch off the NVIDIA GPU on linux.
Same way, i guess, as Sony does it under windows - software. But that is up to suse devs to decide if they want to spent time on that. I see more and more high-end laptops adapting this "dual graphics" setup. Maybe it is interesting to dive in to this problem. Hopefully someone does, i wish i had skills to reverse engineer Sonys method. Another way would be much harder way - pursuing Sony to open up bios!! But that's not gonna happen isn't it :(. Then it would be just bios tweak, but noooo Sony has 10^6 reasons to do things the way they do it. And i'm sure they can give a nice explanation to why in the name of ...whoever.. we can't have this option available? Really, why?
Non-working S3 suspend + resume with intel graphics looks indeed like a kernel issue.
It does look like it, but still i think that it is just a driver issue. i915 driver is to general. I think we need little bit more "recent" driver for intel core i7 and above GPUs. Well considering that i915 is provided by kernel it still makes it kernel issue, but.... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
