I'm another XPS user. I have to use linux (for work). Bumblebee is PITA on ubuntu and fedora, but works surprisingly well on opensuse 12.3 check: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/hardware/484188-setup-bumblebee-primus-opensuse-12-3-a.html http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/h... ( after installing bumblebee and primus, please remember to add your user to 'bumblebee' and 'video' groups, before reboot) KDE is still a messy shit but doesn't crash much any more ;). It can display a wicked Mandelbrot as background but can't auto add wallpapers in ~/Pictures. Reports about v4.10 desktop indexing being 'sane' and 'reasonable' are wholly untrue. sound works over HDMI cable but occasionally goes quiet (relogin). flicker is an xorg feature which is not going away :( Sound is still subpar compared to maxx drivers under windows. So much for 'Open-source Desktop'
