After some talk with dario (cool guy btw), i’ve changed some things in the management of switchable graphics and it’s almost ready for inclusion in KDE.
Here are the things that stop me pushing code for review:
- code cleanup (i just cleaned it up from debug swears
) - astyle run (if i submit this, kde dudes laugh in my face)
- 2 icons, 1 for switchable graphics and one for gpu.
- translations?
For those impatient to try it even if it may eat your hamster alive:
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kde-workspace.git cd kde-workspace wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5225087/0001-Added-switchable-graphics.patch git apply 0001-Added-switchable-graphics.patch mkdir build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .. cd powerdevil make sudo make install
And here goes the result

Ciao, avevo creato un po’ di tempo fa degli script rc per cambiare le schede grafiche che si basavano su acpi_call. Tu che metodo usi? C’รจ bisogno di qualche pre-impostazione? Su che hardware l’hai provato?
Grazie
Fabio
I’m using vgaswitcheroo. It works on everything supported by vgaswitcheroo
First of all, thank you for the good job! Awsome!
Will you add an option to switch off the unused card?
I think it will be nice to switch with a right click, as we do with energy profiles. Is it possible?
Again, thank you for the good job!
Awesome
So I’ll just wait for the code in the official repo

The unused card is *always* switched off when switchable graphics in powerdevil is enabled.
