I'm expecting there to be a vgaswitcheroo directory here so I can perform GPU
switching.
Can you mention the graphics card being used and the driver being used
along with versions of libdrm installed ? Switcheroo is certainly not
available with binary nvidia driver.

The card currently working is an Intel:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated
Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 1436
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 27
Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
Memory at b0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
I/O ports at 4050 [size=8]
Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit-
Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features
Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: i915
The one I'd like to be able to switch to is an ATI:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Redwood [Radeon HD 5600
Series] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 1436

Kernel modules: radeon
The libdrm installed is 2.4.21(-1) and most importantly kernel26=2.6.34.1(-1).
I thought it didn't matter what video card or driver was being used. If the
kernel has vga_switcheroo compiled, shouldn't it show up in debugfs?
