Hi,

Is there a way to use nvidia optimus - bumblebee on a linux desktop pc. Is it possible ???

My computer has:
Ubuntu 14.04 64bit
Intel® Core™ i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz × 4 ‖ RAM 16GiB ‖ SABERTOOTH Z77
ASUS GTX 560 Ti

If yes what versions should i use ???

Thanks in advance

Currently it is not supported even for bumblebee but they do have some discussion on reviewing such functionality for Bumblebee

Thanks for the response.

Is there another way to achieve hybrid graphics on desktops ???

Thanks in advance

I think you’d be better off getting a used 750 Ti if you want to do three monitors.

It is not only that. It is a clear case of stubbornness :)
Since it is possible in windows it should be also possible in linux …
