So you have nVidia's Hybrid Graphics system, also known fondly as nVidia Optimus. These links should get you started:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA_Optimus
The point is that I don't want to install Nvidia drivers. It should be a mobile system, that's why I need Nouveau.
I want it to work with ATI's, Intel's and Nvidia's graphic cards,
The funny thing is that I've already done it before - I've successfully installed Arch on USB with Nouveau drivers, so I know that it is possible.

  • A wrong start to be a professional programmer?

    a wrong start to be a professional programmer?
    I graduated a university with applied computer science major and business
    administration minor.
    I hoped at my first job I learn a lot of quick tips and business practice
    such as robust error handling and good programming concepts and practice as
    well good code and improving my code by monitoring and tutoring and so on. I
    wanted to learn something I couldn't learn at school and take a step into
    real professional programming world.
    But I guess I was in the totally wrong place.
    My first job was at a small consulting company. I got this I think I had sun
    java certificate, although I was fresh out of school.
    At the job I asked for such things above, but I received nothing. I had to
    deal with everything myself. I had to rely heavily on newsgroup and books.
    We couldn't even get technical support from Microsoft on detailed matters. I
    had to learn many things quickly dealing with troubles myself with kind
    peoples help on newsgroup. I was really stressed. If it seems there is a
    project chance from a client I had to learn an enterprise product like in
    3or4 weeks. I don't know if that's appropriate. It was stressful to try
    this or that without even basic knowledge of good coding practice. From
    Java, I learned ASP, VB, VBscript, Jscript, IIS, Windows2000, SQL server
    2000, and so on. I was alone in the office for a in-house client project.I
    spend big time doing Windows 2000, IIS administration. I didn't have books.
    I felt sorry to ask buy me books. I did for some books but too many seemed
    sorry. At the beginning he even told I can do everything just with MSDN
    online library. At that time it was quite hard to search. You know online
    library returns 1000 if you search a word. I was new and didn't know much
    how it was organized(it's better organized (I am familiar with it now) and
    how to use MSDN library.)
    I wish I could just focus on coding, but setting up and some administration
    issues like right and security regarding RDS and IIS viruses regarding Win
    2000, SQL server 2000, IIS administration gave me hard time without proper
    knowledge about security I didn't even know security was issue, and didn't
    have books.
    I thought it was that way naturally.
    I was busy figuring out my coding issues and some other issues regarding
    program and database design and analysis yes I did even these thing without
    knowledge. There was a little help from another programmer but mostly very
    insufficient and unprofessional. When I asked my boss several times to
    review my code, he was inconsiderate and say yes it looks good, although I
    knew it sucked and needed a lot of improvement and repair. I had to
    everything alone. It was horrible and I was paid less than 40,000 a year
    rate. For some months I didn't work, I didn't know if I was working or not,
    and I found that I was "not working" after I didn't get paid. Because no
    client = no pay. Eventually my payment was $27,000 that year. My boss was
    telling I can do and know everything and I am an expert advertising me that
    way to clients and made fake resume with fake experience and skillsets.
    I feel I am not really good at anything now.
    It was very bad experience, and I guess it was very bad start.
    From a few people's talk, I suppose as an entry level you start with coding
    and robust coding and good programming practice and do some easy basic
    coding work and you improve your skill and improve your understanding of
    project to the next higher level step by step. You learn things one by one
    with some dedicated time. None of that happened to me.
    I really want to start again as an entry level programmer and learn steady
    and robust things step by step.
    My case was dead wrong and unusual I think now. Do you think so?
    I really don't care for money, I just want to have a good career. That's honest, robust and steady. And progress truthful and sincere step by setp.
    How can I find a good company for me?
    Thank you very much

    From the way you describe what you want to do, I would recommend trying to get a job with a government contractor.
    Government contracts generally do alot of Research and Development, which allows you to learn alot more that at a consulting firm. There is usually less pressure working on a government contracts than in private industry. The main disadvantage is that these jobs generally pay less. But if you're looking for a chance to learn it's a good way to go.
    I hope that's helpful.

  • After restoring BIOS from USB still HP BIOS Utility starts

    Hi guys, after a BIOS update my HP Pavilion 15-e026sl not boot anymore, it does the following scheme:
    I press the power button
    Power, Bloc Maiusc and wifi lights and fan on but dark screen
    2/3 seconds and everything shut down
    The pc automatically reboot with bloc maiusc light flashing
    HP Bios update starts with the need to recovery Bios because it's corrupted
    Flash the Bios, but when verifying the bios flashed I got error
    Everything restart from point 4
    So, I read on this forum and on the HP Support Center how to create the famous "HP_TOOLS" USB stick in order to restore the BIOS image. (With another pc) From the Support Page of my Pavilion 15-026sl I downloaded the latest BIOS update (F.23), I started the .exe file and I created the USB Stick choosing the correct option.
    Then I put the USB on the Pavilion and with Win + B + Power combination the pc started to recover BIOS from USB, and this is the log that I extracted from the USB stick:

    P.S.3: I have also tried to:
    Remove HDD and power on
    Remove RAMs simultaneously and power on
    Remove CD/DVD-RW and power on
    Holding Power On for 1 minute with no external power and power on
    But nothing's changed
    Thank you to anyone who wants to help me

  • How do you access bios at start up p875s7102

    I want to test my USB recovery flash drive but can't access bios at start up can someone please help also how do you boot from the read only file on the hard drive on my old model you would push 0 and hold while powering up and the computer would return to the just out of the box state THANKS

    How would I get into bios if I can't remember my password to get to the desktop though to start with? I am beyond annoyed with windows 8 and toshiba. Best Buy didn't give me a disk, instead there's a stupid card. If I had the disk, I could simply do a reinstall and change the password. Plus we pay for the operating system so this is not good, what they are doing at all now! Even if they gave a reset disk it would be helpful. But now they want to charge for that?
    any way.. how do i get to the bios at bootup before reaching the desk top so that I can reinstall or "something".. must be able to in there!

  • Wrong starting day of the week printing calendar in month view

    I'm trying to print a month view calendar with the weeks starting from Monday.
    In "Preferences" -> "General tab" ->"Start week on:"  I've set Monday, and it is properly viewed in Calendar, but when I try to print it in the preview I see Tuesday as first day of the week.
    This happens on many MacBook that I've tried, all with Yosemite and Italian regional settings.
    The only way to resolve this issue is to open "System Preferences" ->"Language & Region" and change the "First day of the week:" on Sunday in all my "Preferred Languages" (both Italian and English), to have the printing preview of a calendar starting on Monday!
    Is there an other way?
    Is this a bug that should be submitted to Apple to get a "patch" on future releases of Mac OS X?
    I know, it is a tiny issue, but annoying.

  • Write to Measurement File time column wrong starting value

    I am using Write tp Measurement File express VI.  I select to write one time column.  The values writtent in the time column start from a value that does not seem to correspond to anything in the program -- sometimes as much as 2-3 days before the saving begins.
    Can I force the starting value  of time to something, or get it to write the time since we started saving, or something predictable?

    Include code whenever available.  Asking somebody to troubleshoot your software without any code is like asking your mechanic to fix your car without taking your car to him.
    Source
    I don't recommend using the Write Express VI.  I recommend using the File I/O primatives because they allow for much more control over what gets written and how.  Still I would expect the Express VI to be able to write time properly so I'd assume there is some kind of bug with the data being given to the function.  Post some code so we can see what is going on.

  • Wrong start directory when launching sh script from Dolphin

    When I try to launch a small sh script from Dolphin, the start directory is ~ instead of the current directory.
    I wrote the script to be able to easily launch a java app from the gui.
    It's basically:
    cd bin
    java NAME
    But since the start directory is my home directory, this obviosly doesn't work.
    It does work when launching it from a terminal.
    What to do?

    I have run into a similar situation.. that was when Viritas was the clustermanager for 9I and we tried to install Oracle clusterware for 10g. Also the cluster was configured to user Veritas propriatory interconnect tech... LLT
    Are you on a similar configuration?

    I'm having exactly the same issue (extremely slow BIOS POST, after POST everything is OK), with an identical hard configuration,
    On my particular research, this is the only valuable information i've found (from nvidia tech support):
    from: http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=150630&st=40 (the last post)
    I wanted to provide an update on this issue as it has been a while. Unfortunately this is only an update as we have not finalized our findings yet. We are still trying to obtain some of the motherboards reported in this thrad. Presently, it appears it may be due to the motherboard BIOS, not the card itself. If after examining additional motherboards, the results are the same, this means that the fix will be to ask the motherboard maker to provide a BIOS update with a fix. The fix is very simple. A register in the motherboard BIOS must be enabled which appears some may not have enabled it. Your motherboard must have Memory Type Range Register (MTRR) enabled. To check, you may do the following however this will require some technical knowledge:
    First, download the file below:
    http://nvidia.s3.amazonaws.com/msd.zip
    Unzip the files contents. You will need to run the utility in pure DOS (means you will need to create a DOS boot disk and boot off of the DOS boot disk). Add "device=himem.sys" in config.sys and load smartdrv.exe in autoexec.bat in the DOS boot disk or else the boot disk will take a long time to load. Type "msd.exe" to start the program. Then press TAB and left arrow key to "System Information" and press ENTER. Press PAGE DOWN key and you will see the Item 2. "Memory Information", in the bottom of this item you can see "Physical memory cache status". That's the MTRR setting for your system. If you see A0000~D0000 is uncacheable, that mean that the motherboard BIOS does not have MTRR enabled and is likely the cause of the slow POST issue.
    So the solution seems to be a bios update enabling the MTRR.
    I wish this can help...
    and it would be perfect to have the problem solved soon! :D
    (I'm not expert on bios development but seems to be a minor change.)
    Thanks a lot for your time!
    this dosent help i know that is MB issue not a graphic card coz there is same problem with ASUS MB they made some hot fix for BIOS and now everything works fine when ASUS mb BIOS its uptodate....
    simple we need MSI mb BIOS hot fix thats BIOS POST was quite annoyng but my pc is 24/24 on restart every week
    thx for ur hel anyway

  • Windows 8.1 flex 14-2 boot menu direct to windows no usb or bios setting start up

    Windows 8.1 > yesterday suddenly to make a selection from more boot menu ; ( Fn - F12) He takes no bios setup or a USB boot stick more but starts right after selection windows again? These have put a lenovo flex 2-14 with a self built-in SSD 250 840EVO disk where I am in the bios Boot UEFI mode to Lagacy support. Via de novo button I can still get into the bios and change the settings here ; Boot menu ; legacy support boat priority ; legacy first USB boot ; enabled All updates are automatically done so I suspect something has changed what is causing this problem?

    Latest Bios installed.
    Bios Priority; usb stick firts, SSD drive last.
    Still direct from boot menu to windows

  • Can't get bios to start

    Hi
    I have a problem. I didn't realize what i was getting into when I bought the parts for my PC. I have had no prior experience with computers, but i wanted to get a new one, and my fried said it was alot cheaper to make one than to buy one from HP or Dell. I ordered all these items from NewEgg.com
    Rosewill ATX Case with 400W Power Supply and Side Window (Black), Model "TU-155"
    Western Digital 160GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive, Model WD1600JD
    Corsair Value Select (Dual Pack) 184 Pin 512MBx2 DDR PC-3200 -
    MSI "K8T NEO2-F" VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket 939 CPU
    AMD Athlon 64 3500+, 512K, L2 Cache, Socket 939 Windows Compatible 64-bit Processor
    MSI nVIDIA GeForce FX 5900XT Video Card, 128MB DDR, DVI/VIVO, 8X AGP, Model "FX5900XT-VTD128"
    Now I thought hey why don't I take a shot at putting it together, how hard could it be?
    Well, I put everything where it should be, but I screwed the mother board into the case, without any brackets. So I started it up a couple of times and the cpu fan and the case fan would go on for half a second then shut off. I brought it to my friends house, and we re-plugged everything and started it up again, this time it gave off a sharp smell. i couldn't tell what it was coming from. Then we realized i was an idiot and didn't put in brackets underneath the mobo. So we did that and and put everythign back in place and started it up again. this time the cpu fan and case fan worked. Then we plugged it into a monitor, but nothign would show up. just a black screen. We also noticed that the fan on the heatsink of the video card started to work for half a second then stoped . We cleared the CMOS and took out that little battery thing in the mobo, and put it back. Still nothign showing up on the screen. the lights in the back of the computer lit up like 1  2
                                                                                    3  4 with the 4th one clear and the manuel said it was Initializing the Video Interface. However we waited a long time, and it still said the same thing with the 4 lights.
    Also another perculiar thing was that when we pluged in the power supply cable, it would automatically turn on without me having to push the power button on the front of the case, and im sure we wired them right (after 13 times).
    I also took out everythign and just tried to power my mobo, cpu, ram, and video card, but when i did the video card fan did the same thing.  He thinks that i fried my mobo when i was turning it on and off with the mobo touching the steel case.
    Any ideas? i think all my parts are compatible
    *sigh* sorry if i am an idiot and didn't post enough info
    edit power supply has at 3.3v - 28 a       5 v - 40 a           12v - 17 a
    also i just looked at the compatibility test items, and i couldn't find the video card or the memory on the list. Does this mean they don't work on this motherboard?

    Any thoughts, ideas and remedies from anyone here (Achung/Tiresmoke, etc) would be useful and appreciated.
    Other specs as below.
    Hi. Did you have any problem when you installed the Corsair memorys on the motherboard and then starting your computer? in what slots do you installing the memorys in, i have the same memory but i haven´t try to start my computer yet because i have a problem with my bios and i must first try to reset the bios with the jbat1 jumpers on the board, it because i cant getting my videocard to work at all on this board, i only get a blank screen and it says on the screen: invalid sync and nothing more happend, i must get the monitor to display information before i can get into the bios by pressing Delete button on my keyboard, did you have the same problems as me? My system is brand new and i havent run it yet.

    Try to

    ./configtool.sh
    the configtool searches for its classes in the current directory, if you´re not in the "configtool" subdirectoy it won´t find them.

  • How do I open up BIOS when starting up?

    I cannot figure out what key to hold down when starting windows xp professional to open up BIOS.
    What do I have to hold down?

    I am trying to do the same thing - access some type of BIOS or EFI upon startup.
    The reason I am looking for the BIOS or EFI is because BitLocker (a drive encryption program) on my Vista side of things requires either: a TPM chip (which it seems I don't have), or the use of a USB key at startup.
    Problem is: the BIOS needs to recognize USB in the "pre-operating system environment" (Microsoft's words). On a non-Mac machine, there is a setting in the BIOS to do this, but I don't know how to accomplish this task on a Mac.
    Any ideas?
