</div>You could try grabbing a Grml ISO, making sure that the according<br>
linux-headers package is installed (like<br>
linux-headers-3.10-1-grml-all for 2013.09-rc1) and then install<br>
bbswitch-dkms to see whether building, installing and using this<br>
kernel module works.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This works fine. I just tried it.<br>I just had to do <br>sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.10-1-grml-all build-essential<br><br></div><div><br></div><div> </div>

(I'm afraid we don't have a sane mechanism to ship it via Grml<br>
by default though.)<br></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>I had a look at the code of the module but I don't understand it well enough to say if its possible to replace it with a script in userlevel. Also, I think this is just to dangerous to put on live CD.<br>
