[ADVICE] FreeBSD implementation #190

Open ngortheone opened 4 years ago

ngortheone commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I am currently looking for a similar project for FreeBSD. All I need is to simply put nvidia card to sleep on my Lenovo X1 Extreme. I am not familiar with ACPI or FreeBSD kernel development - how hard is it going to be to implement something similar for FreeBSD?

So there used to be a web page at

https://wiki.freebsd.org/OptimusVideoSupport

But its gone now so I don't know if they are supporting that.

It still existed a year ago though.

Good luck with figuring something out.
