Video is broken with switchable graphics
Originally created by @alant on #7505 (Redmine)
On a MacBook Pro 6,2, which has both an intel and nvidia graphics card Tails 1.1-rc1 boots fine but X fails to start.
It is possible to make it work by booting with i915.modeset=0 rootpw=pass and drop a file containing:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nouveau"
BusID "1:0:0"
EndSectionand restart X with service gdm3 restart
Feature Branch: bugfix/7505-optimus
