My laptop has 2 GPUs, the Intel HD Graphics 4000, and NVIDIA GeForce FT 650M. How do I switch between GPUs? I tried installing drivers from NVIDIA, but that ruined my Ubuntu installation, and I had to reinstall. The Additional Drivers in Settings don't list any Nvidia drivers either.

This might be slightly easier to use: WebUpd8 Just go to part 4, about graphics switching. Also, take a ook at this more detailed explanation, also at WebUpd8: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/02/bumblebee-31-released-with-primus.html |

Your graphics card is not yet officially supported by Nvidia, and requires the bumblebee drivers for Linux. You can find more information on this post: Switchable laptop graphics issues on Ubuntu 12.04? |
