Hey @mattmacy do you have any idea how to use Nvidia Optimus? I have a new laptop with Nvidia 940m and Skylake. No option to disable Optimus in BIOS =/.

PRIME support as required by Optimus is done. But above and beyond that I've never had access to a laptop that uses Optimus so I haven't looked in to it. There is additional code required for GPU switching in linux "vga_switcheroo" which still needs to be ported in order for this to work.

Any idea when we gonna see this branch merged in STABLE? Ready to 11.1?

It still needs to be committed to -CURRENT first and that requires a committer to do.
