    I want to set my m11x R1 up so that when set to Discrete mode the nVidia graphics drivers is only enabled. That part is easy. I just installed the last driver 260.99.

    Now what I really want to do (because I hardly use integrated graphics) is so that when its on switchable I install the updated intel driver so that it only makes use of that.

    Is this possible? Updated drivers for each nvidia and intel. Of course they would not have the ability to switch back and forth unless I go into BIOS.

    Sorry If I am unclear,
    DeeVu

    P.S. I've tried to find the intel chipset driver but I am failing miserably. Thanks for any feedback.
