XPS 15z Accelerated Flash, Bumblebee without charger #617

Hi MrMEE,

Awesome program!!! I have just bout a dell xps 15z, and had to use a combination of startup scripts from this website to get bumblebee working correctly. The system now works perfectly and others with this laptop can use my settings I uploaded them as Age (working)

I have just 2 questions. I can't use the optirun command when not plugged into the charger. The command works but the graphics card doesn't start. Is this the program or my laptop? - Can i get bumblebee to work when not on charge.

The other question I have is I cannot get flash applications or video to use my dedicated card. I have tried running chrome and firefox with bumblebee, the card starts but flash doesn't use the dedicated card. This is off-topic from bumblebee but if ne1 has solved this issue, I would be interested.

All in all great program :D

Thanks MrMEEE!!!

For the first question, this is ECOPTIRUN.

Use optirun -f when on battery.
