RE: Native Nvidia Optimus and Fedora 19

A re-post since I forgot HTML was on.

Has anyone tried to get native Optimus running on a Fedora 19 box? When I attempt it, I get a blank black screen. I posted on the Nvidia forums, but no one has replied yet and I'm getting anxious ;-)

The general consensus is that the kernel must be 3.9 or higher, and I am running 3.9.9-302. The Nvidia readme indicates CONFIG_DRM has to be enabled and the following driver interfaces present (http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86-ARM/319.32/README/randr14.html):

drm_gem_prime_export
drm_gem_prime_import
gem_prime_pin
gem_prime_get_sg_table
gem_prime_import_sg_table
gem_prime_vmap
gem_prime_vunmap

I have verified that CONFIG_DRM is enabled within the kernel as a module and it's loaded, but when I attempted to verify the list of module symbols, I only found two (the ones in bold).

The way I determined this information was through:
`cat /boot/config-3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64 | grep CONFIG_DRM`
`cat /lib/modules/3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64/modules.symbols | grep gem_prime`

Am I missing something or does it appear that F19 kernel is missing vital parts for native Nvidia Optimus support?

For those more interested, here is the post on the nvidia forums (https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/551709/linux/319-23-the-infamous-blank-black-screen-/)
