I just want to run a java program but it is running with my amd integrated gpu, how can I get this to run with my Nvidia GPU?
On windows, you can try right click -> Run with graphic processor, and than choose which processor you want to use.

I have a Lenovo G580 computer with intel CPU and a Nvidia 610M GPU. Running Linux Lite OS (Ubuntu based).
I would like to use Nvidia prime to run programs with the GPU.
I installed some packages about Nvidia drivers, version 390 according to this page.
With the Nvidia X Server Settings I can switch to on demand mode. On th UI there is only one settings for prime, no mention about the GPU settings.
My problem is that when the on demand mode is enable, many programs (games and glx debug programs) throw this error : (even without asking to use GPU)
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
I know there is other posts like mine on internet however I can't understand the problem or identify a missing package on my computer. Have you already install prime on this GPU ? I can send logs or system info if needed.
What I've done in the past is simply Dual boot, but I would like to not have to reboot my computer in order to switch OS's. Specifically, what I'd like is:
Computer would mainly run Linux,
When I want to play a Windows only game I can switch over to Windows, for that period of time then return to Linux.
Both Linux and Windows need to run up to native in speed.
I'm looking for suggestions in setting this up.
I've looked into Xen, however, I hear that Xen doesn't support 3D graphics? is this accurate. I've also looked into WineD3D and VMGL. However, Wine won't play every game, so I'd still need the Windows VM, and VMGL doesn't seem to work universally either.
I'm running two different machines that I plan to put this setup on:
Laptop:
Intel i7 4720HQ
16GB Ram
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M
Desktop:
AMD FX-8350
16GB Ram
EVGA GeForce GTX 960
I just joined and the "Tour" said, don't ask questions that could lead to a discussion than an answer. Anyway, If gaming is your primary goal, have windows as primary boot & dive into linux as VM. Otherwise you need to find a hyper-visor that provides 3D services or pass-through to your actual GPU.
There is a discussion here
i have installed Cygwin in my windows 10 to run a software called GROMACS. This software needs GPU acceleration for faster results. But currently the programme is not utilizing the GPU. Does cygwin blocks GPU? or do i need to install other programmes first before i run GROMACS.
Is there any way to run a MIPS binary on a Linux x86/x86-x64 machine? I got some applications for Enigma2 set-top-boxes (which is also based on Linux) that I want to run on a x86/x86-64 machine. These plugins are only available for MIPS processors.
The keyword is "emulator". The most famous emulator is qemu which can pretty much emulate any architectures out there, but there are also lots of MIPS emulators on Linux that you can find in the Linux-MIPS wiki:
Open Virtual Platforms (OVP) OVPsim
GXemul
SimOS
Sulima
MIPSsim
MipsSim
SPIM
VMIPS
Virtutech Simics
SandUPSim
MPS
YAMS
MAME/MESS
MISSE
Cisco 7200 Simulator
QEMU
VirtualMIPS
Miep
MARS
QtMips
Note that there are full-system emulation (which is heavier) and user-mode emulation which emulates a single process. Depending on which type you need you must choose one, but qemu supports both
Full-system emulation: Run operating systems for any machine, on any supported architecture
User-mode emulation: Run programs for another Linux/BSD target, on any supported architecture
However performance will be terrible so you'll never want to run an app that need to be fast like a video decoder in a set-top-box. If the source is available then just recompile it
See Decompile / Run MIPS executable under x86_64 Ubuntu
Qemu could be your Messiah this time. I use it personally and it really saves a lot of pain using an FPGA.

Of course, this isn't natively executing the MIPS binary on your computer. But I suppose that if you can find plugin of your app coded for MIPS processors, the app itself can be found for MIPS.
I was wondering if it is possible to force the Intel GPU to be in a "OpenCL-only" mode in a Linux environment, only making OpenCL work.
We already have disabled X server and graphical software, but we would like to completly disable "video work" on this card.
