Dear friends,
I have a f16 machine:
Code:
$ uname -r
3.2.1-3.fc16.x86_64
It has a hybrid graphics:
Code:
$ lspci|grep vga
3:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
16:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF106 [GeForce GT 555M SDDR3] (rev a1)
first, nvidia card is a surprise, as i never installed it in linux.(its dualboot and i installed it in windows. I don't know if this is possible).
Now my question: While I bought this machine 1 yr back, I was aware that nvidia optimus does not work on linux. But now, it shows in nvidia website that nvidia 555m for linux is available.
So, can I install it? Will it really help my graphics?
