macool Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hi, My laptop has two gpu. Intel HD 3000 and Nvidia GT 550M. My first wish is to switch off nvidia gpu. It's always running and result is half battery life. There is an application called Bumblebee. It's brings nvidia oprimus gpu switching to linux. It also can switch off nvidia gpu. Can somebody port it to Mac Os X? http://bit.ly/jA4fN4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not recognise my system and my gpu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
