Hi Thomas, I'm not sure what information you require, so please let me know if this is not sufficient. $ lspci|grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 124d (rev ff) I'm also running bumblebee 3.0.1-3~quantalppa2 for nVidia Optimus.
Ah, optimus - just attach the output of "glxinfo", it will contain anything relevant (gl vendor, renderer) but unless you're using the nouveau driver, this is a sandy bridge intel chip on MESA. do you use uxa or sna? ("grep -iE 'uxa|sna' /var/log/Xorg.0.log")
Created attachment 76085 [details] output of `glxinfo`
$ grep -iE 'uxa|sna' /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 5.914] (II) UXA(0): Driver registered support for the following operations:
yupp, intel on uxa - many thanks. See here on how to activate SNA (it's arch because they've the best wiki, but it should just work the same on ubuntu) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_Graphics#Choose_acceleration_method Personal experience: it's faster and more "reliable" in the visual outcome, BUT some "legacy" (?) games (happened with etracer) occasioanlly up to reliably crash on it. No special problems with kwin observed, though.
Thanks for the tip. I had odd results with enabling SNA though. In my case, it prevented changing the screen brightness from 100% (either from laptop keys or external keyboard). Previously my laptop brightness keys had a 25 second delay, which was fixed by modifying grub with: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_backlight=vendor" (In all cases, changing brightness from the external laptop functioned perfectly.) When I removed this option, brightness worked again (with SNA). Oddly enough, now the laptop keys function, but don't show the brightness overlay. (The external keys work just as normal.) Well, that's a small price to pay for a better solution though. Thanks again.
Hmm... I just noticed that now I can't get to 0% brightness any more. Oh well, I guess SNA is not for me. Cheers.
