> I have a Sandy Bridge W520 with Optimus. It showed the following
> behaviour: You could suspend (S3) it once without a problem, but
> after the second try, it would use a lot more power than before AND
> it wont run any faster than the lowest possible CPU clocking speed.
> This behaviour only went away when I shut down the computer, cut off
> power and restarted it.

> Yesterday I found the solution to this: Install IronHide

How did you install IronHide? via

ppa:mj-casalogic/ironhide

or compiling from

https://github.com/MrMEEE/ironhide

?

> use it to switch the nVidia Core just on and off once after resume.
