First of all: you did a very good job! Actually I wanted to report an X server
crash and a kernel panic in nouveau/vgaswitcheroo in Ubuntu 13.04, but now that
I installed the latest version of nouveau I see that these bugs are gone!
However, there are still some other bugs in the latest version that I want to
report.
Kernel version: 3.11.0-031100-generic
DRM version: 1.1.0 20060810
Nouveau version: 1.1.1 20120801
I did a out-of-tree compilation using the nouveau snapshot of today.
My notebook (Medion Akoya P6624) uses a Nvidia GeForce GT 425M together with an
Intel HD graphics card. X is not involved in these reports. I always booted to
console and never started X. To make it clear how long a command took to
execute, I used a script that logs to dmesg and syslog when a command started
executing and when it was done. The commands of each report were executed
directly after boot. The output of "cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch"
after boot is always
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0
1:DIS: :Pwr:0000:01:00.0
1) Switching the dedicated card off takes 45 seconds and reports some errors
1.1) Switch dedicated card off:

3) Can't switch to dedicated graphics card
3.1) Switch to Nvidia card
Result: Screen turns off (including backlight). Everything else still
works, commands entered through the keyboard and SSH are still executed.

AFAIK the Nvidia graphics card sends its output to the Intel card, which is
responsible for the graphics output to the screen. So I guess the problem is
that switcheroo disables the Intel card which causes the graphics output to
stop.
I would be glad if someone could take a look at these issues. Please let me
know if I should supply more logs or try out a different version.
