Lenovo IdeaPad Y470/Y570
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
Until [this kernel bug](https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42696) is
|
||||
fixed, you need to apply an ugly hack on these laptops to make bbswitch and the
|
||||
driver (both nouveau and nvidia) work. For now I have decided not to put the
|
||||
hack in the bbswitch module since it is a very ugly hack that is comparable to
|
||||
writing a maximum allowable speed of 130 km/h on a traffic sign for a road
|
||||
where 120 km/h is allowed just because the radar gun does not work properly.
|
||||
|
||||
To make use of it, use the `hack-lenovo` branch. An example using DKMS:
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone git://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/bbswitch.git -b hack-lenovo
|
||||
$ cd bbswitch
|
||||
$ mkdir /usr/src/acpi-handle-hack-0.0.1
|
||||
# cp Makefile acpi-handle-hack.c /usr/src/acpi-handle-hack-0.0.1
|
||||
# cp dkms/acpi-handle-hack.conf /usr/src/acpi-handle-hack-0.0.1
|
||||
# dkms add acpi-handle-hack/0.0.1
|
||||
# dkms build acpi-handle-hack/0.0.1
|
||||
# dkms install acpi-handle-hack/0.0.1
|
||||
If everything goes well, you now need to get the hack loaded on boot. On
|
||||
Ubuntu and Debian, this can be done with:
|
||||
|
||||
echo acpi-handle-hack | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
|
||||
sudo update-initramfs -u
|
||||
For other systems, adopt the instructions from the *Disable card on boot*
|
||||
section below. Please do not copy these instructions to blogs/forums/whatever
|
||||
without warning that the method is a hack (you can refer to the metaphore above)
|
||||
and that it may crash the machine if incorrectly applied.
