This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 4880 and 3156) ------enig2MXCRBPXHBOBARDHKPFWD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello guys, I just found how to disable (my) nVidia Optimus card. With the help of: https://github.com/mkottman/acpi_call/ Peter Wu from bbswitch sysutils/acpi_calls cd /usr/ports/sysutils/acpi_calls && make install clean kldload acpi_call acpi_call -d /dev/acpi -p "\_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._OFF" nVidia card is on 1:0:0 port. It's just fine now, I can use FreeBSD on my desktop without the need of a nuclear power plant ! PS: I've also installed nvidia kernel module and loaded it, I don't know if it works without. If you know someone using this crappy hardware, try an acpi call ;) --=20 Florent Peterschmitt | Please: florent@peterschmitt.fr | * Avoid HTML/RTF in E-mail +33 (0)6 64 33 97 92 | * PDF for documents http://florent.peterschmitt.fr | Thank you :) ------enig2MXCRBPXHBOBARDHKPFWD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Icedove - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJRtYz8AAoJEMtO2Sol0IImK7gH/0yYsRnIffKoojWzrut6Hd4H c9PzsKttcDZPpaT1XdIjQI7ryy6JKZX21zdqqrzIT85hrQgUonSGCaj8Do7954ra IngE29u3LQ4pYWcvcqYwNAzPs7uA0jxp4bzNh3I1+DqE1Wza0KqT2kaiaKEFgphk 0WspxhdtULGmEP1AThXT6eSCVEBMbFz0IAYwtpW8GHOVIpUT//hXu47O9Inm7n4q 35UFaNx0CQg2DtoBhBHEgITHd+bt/yrbHbpgsBJcbx4sIRISeNkfmZBAyBEA3FOq 6QGiTYq2zk/csp83UwGfZj64ZSdJMqc4BMX0xEyAuSu7SeKn8EN4y6KmBvc2I/0= =CoYK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------enig2MXCRBPXHBOBARDHKPFWD--
