Linux Hybrid Graphics: Using acpi_call module to switch on/off discrete graphics card in Linux
Asus U35JC-RX005X with ubuntu lucid lynx:
echo '\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
The battery using rate decrease from 4200mW :
echo '\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._ON' > /proc/acpi/call
grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present rate: 17808 mW
echo '\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state

Everything else worked fine under Ubuntu for this computer.
