Description

Exposes dual-GPU availability through D-Bus so desktop components and applications can know when a system has switchable graphics. It is useful on laptops with integrated and dedicated GPUs where apps may offer a high-performance launch option.

It reports hardware capability but does not replace the graphics driver stack. Correct behavior depends on kernel, Mesa, NVIDIA or vendor drivers, and desktop integration.

How to run
