Hybrid Graphics Nvidia and Onboard Intel












2















I am fairly new to Ubuntu, so excuse if this is a stupid question.



I am trying to get Hybrid Graphics to work. First let me explain my setup.




  1. I have a 26" Samsung as my main screen connected to DVI on Nvidia 560Ti.

  2. I have 1 19" Acer screen connected to my desktop onboard Graphics DVI for monitoring.

  3. Then I have a 42" Proline TV on the HDMI Port of the Nvidia Card.


Ubuntu version 13.10
Nvidia Driver version is 319.60 and also installed prime.



In the Nvidia Settings it picks up all 3 monitors but only display on the intel screen.
I have not made any changes to xorg.conf as I am not sure what to insert.



Is this where my problem is or am I missing something else?



Here is a screenshot of my nvidia settings:

Any help will be highly appreciated.

You seam to have two option:



there is the nvidia proprietary solution



http://www.webupd8.org/2013/08/using-nvidia-graphics-drivers-with.html



and there is the open driver solution with the bumblebee solution



How to switch between hybrid Graphics Intel/nVidia?



I am afraid that both require the GPU to be used all the time...
