Tutorial: Steam for Linux on Optimus enabled computer running Ubuntu 12.04 64bits
Hi everyone,

I've compiled and wrote a tutorial to setup Steam on Linux on a Optimus enabled computer from start to end with some tips. Hope it help someone.

http://cjenkins.wordpress.com/2013/01/01/steam-for-linux-on-optimus-enabled-computer-running-ubuntu-12-04-64bits/

I'll be posting a follow up for each game I've tested.

Kind regards

Unfortunately it does not work for me :( nothing happens after modifying the advanced options. Is there any chance to debug this?

I've added the env variable, relog to XFCE, checked that primus variable exists (it does), modified the advanced options on the Trine 2 game, tried to "play this game..." - and... nothing. Not even some blinking or something...
