NVidia OPTIMUS support

[paaguti]

HI,

I'd like to add NVidia OPTIMUS support. A blueprint for the different steps would be:

1. Requirements
DSDT that supports acpi call to enable/disable the NVidia and Intel GPU

2. Roadmap
Phase 1: disable NVidia, use the Intel GPU (in order to get maximum battery life)
Phase 2: select NVidia/Intel in boot.plist
Phase 3: additional KExt to switch between the GPUs depending on the laptop running on AC or battery

Hi,

I have Nvidia Optimus too, I am trying some mods in dsdt here, like switching gfx0 x peg0 and adding methods to make it work

My note is a Core i5 with Sandy Bridge AND Optimus witch is worse (i think)
My VGAs are Intel HD with DEV_0126 and Geforce GT 540M with DEV_0DF4
