Hye @ all,
i own a dell xps 13 since january of this year. This laptop has hybrid sli
which is not supported in linux.
I want to know if it's possible to configure xorg to use only the onboard
GPU and switch the powerful one off?
In vista i reach more than 4h batterylife in study modus (have some PDF open
and hear music) by the same activity, in linux a reach only 2h.
I have tried with "BusId 'PCI:2:00:0'" but it does't work! (i toke the
2:00:0 from "lspci" output
PS sorry for my English
here is my xorg.conf
