M14x Issues

Hello folks! i was wondering if you guys could help me

dscn2209v.th.jpg

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

What i have tried so far, i have disabled the AUTO_MODULES in rc.conf so the hardware is not detected.

i have blacklisted !nouveau and !nvidia just in case.

i was wondering if theres a list i could get of modules where i could make it work, or i have to use hwdetect...

I get this at boot from a netinstall sad no video drivers configured, nada.



Specs
2630QM - Sandy Bridge H67 Chipset
Optimus (which i can't control in bios)
Intel HD3000 + Nvidia GT555m.
8GB of ram

Re: M14x Issues

I've read that the there's no current support for the nvidia chipset in such a configuration, so it's best to simply disable it to lower the drain on battery life:

Information how to do that can be found at #3 here:

I believe only xf86-video-intel works or is the only one that comes close to "functional" in your case.
