Launchpad hybrid grpahics will show a substantial amount of users with varying distros with the same issues
on Asus and other optimus or hybrid graphics enabled laptops .

Please check the Ubuntu forum as their is a fix by enabling ide compatibility in the bios instead
of UHCI ,this works for the UL80 laptop after a reboot .

As per below ,this may work on the K52 i have heard .


this is how you get g210m to work on ubuntu 9.10 / 10.04.

1. download and install nvidia drivers. (i have only tested the ones in the repos)

2. make sure you got an Xorg.conf that is correct. ( if not, run nvidia-xconfig )

3. reboot into bios (press delete while booting)

4. change the SATA option in the bios from enhanced to compatibility. ( yea, this makes sense? NOT! )

5. boot into linux and smile!

Anyone more then me who want to hit the people who wrote the bios?
running the latest bios. ends with 10.

The links which i couldnt post before .

If the slackware guys find a kernel module that will address this device in dmesg it would be great .

as this device is the mux /controller for the nvidia processor,which responds to
ACPI calls.

See dmesg ;

# - 10de:0a35 is the nvidia adapter .

Please post to hybrid graphics launchpad if anyone has any module success with this ,and some parameters.

Thanks
