sebastien.guerin.news Support won't likely be added to Mageia 1, changing version. Don't get your hopes up for Mageia 2 either, as integrating support for this would be quite a lot work as the bumblebee/ironhide projects work on quite a low level and seem to be designed as hacks on top of distribution proprietary driver packages, which makes proper integration harder (but not impossible). In addition, integration would be hard to test without such a laptop. Note that AFAIK bumblebee/ironhide is not supported properly out-of-the-box on any distribution (i.e. it always requires manual installation). Priority:

djmarian4u Hi, This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment. Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2. Thanks :) Cheers, marja Keywords:

(none) Basic support for NVIDIA Optimus technology using Bumblebee has been implemented in ROSA Marathon 2012 : http://www.rosalab.com/products/desktop/software_components In this video Linus Torvalds "gives the sign" about the support in Linux for the optimus nvidia cards: After the 0:48:08 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MShbP3OpASA bumblebee was imported in mageia3/cauldron today, thanks to simplew and shlomif Wow, great job, thanks a lot ! Excellent, congratulations ! The wiki page of that features could be updated, I believe. There is also a mandriva wiki page http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Bumblebee, for our knowledge. CC:

Thanks, Stefano. Imported that page into our wiki https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Bumblebee Feel free to import needed pages if the licence allows it and put: "imported from <link to original page>" in the summary at the bottom of the screen, before you save it.

marcello.anni is it possible to have it installed by default in mageia 3 DVDs and CDs? i tried beta 1 Live KDE (1 gb) but bumblebee wasn't installed... Can we close this bug? BTW, can someone look over https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Bumblebee and see if it still applies for Mageia (and sometimes change the text to refer to Mageia instead of Mandriva)? I will mark https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:NvidiaOptimusSupport at 100% complete. Thanks. CC:

olivier What is the state in Mageia 3? This is a blocker bug for me, and guess for many other users that have laptops with optimus tech. and need 3d acceleration. Would be great having optimus support in mageia... CC:

muirin.eu Marking this as duplicate of 10218 ... not logically correct, but 10218 is same subject and more recent so it is better to continue there, and one less open bug :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 10218 *** Status:

RESOLVED this one has been opened against cauldron (hoping to have it fixed in time for mageia 4), that one was against mageia 3. reopening then Status:
