Just FYI, there is a pilot project to support Optimus here:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://bumblebee-project.org/&k=dsHy%2FVymniCD0osh6tze%2Fw%3D%3D%0A&r=6lbkzZQmkGgL7ITxCWNsIJwNXCdRDnxsPepTVOzWl24%3D%0A&m=3Qq%2B1AAJhQnjOt2h7xWd%2BDcnmbrne%2FqGqK2MjngD%2BG8%3D%0A&s=a2ea19ae2ab35b2036fd8b9ba407232d886e4779e44c3ac0edc884797b64bcb1. I'm using it and the Intel driver seems
fine.  On my system, the disadvantage is that the external display is
attached to the nVidia driver, so I can't use it without some hacking
around that I haven't had time to do.  The other disadvantage is that
driver switching isn't seamless.  You need to invoke programs you want
to run on the nVidia card with a wrapper program.

There's a much better "fire and forget" system that works for Fedora, and here's a link to one of the walkthroughs: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t%3D204752&k=dsHy%2FVymniCD0osh6tze%2Fw%3D%3D%0A&r=8rpG62JsbnMep%2FW9P%2BpQMA%3D%3D%0A&m=NE4zsg86RKQPP3mb0%2Fx7RVmIMvMwpO%2FLLe6Qp3yvask%3D%0A&s=ba3291b7bbe17c8a54a9b153ab62f7b726dbb0fdc52d8bde3d5b1dd2013bea15
