NVIDIA's Optimus: Will It Come To Linux?
,----[ Quote ]
| NVIDIA's Optimus is similar to the hybrid-
| switching technologies that have been
| available on notebooks up to this point for
| switching between ATI/AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA
| GPUs on notebooks depending upon the graphics
| workload, but with Optimus the experience is
| supposed to be seamless.

NVIDIA's VDPAU Library Updated For DRI2 Work
,----[ Quote ]
| NVIDIA's Aaron Plattner has announced the
| release of libvdpau 0.4. From November of
| 2008 when VDPAU was introduced to September
| of 2009, the Video Decode and Presentation
| API for Unix lived within NVIDIA's binary
| display driver package. However, in
| September NVIDIA began releasing a
| standalone driver package to make it easier
| for other Linux graphics drivers to
| implement. A month later NVIDIA then pushed
| out a DRI2 patch that allowed choosing the
| VDPAU back-end implementation on a per-
| screen basis.
