screen display. When I read the following...
Quick question about this: I have a Macbook with an intel and nvidia graphics card. I used the nouveau driver and nvidia card for some time. But my laptop got really hot. So recently I blacklisted the noveau driver. And only use intel card.
But then I realized: multiple monitor doesn't work with it!
That is the strange part for me, I know for sure that intel driver supports up to 3 monitors (laptop + 2 external using docking station). Maybe you should raise that as the first problem, and solving this issue will mean that you do not need nvidia any more? I have bumblebee on my older asus zenbook, but I'm using it only to keep nvidia disabled at all times (bbswitch). If I understand it correctly, linux support for optimus is weaker than on windows (thanx, nvidia!), so you actually have to launch stuff using bumblebee as wrapper, mostly intended for games. I may be wrong though, never used it myself, only heard others complaining. -- Regards, Stas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
