Hello. I am trying to get bumblebee up and running but there seems to be an issue. This is what i've done:
sudo pacman -S bumblebee mesa xf86-video-intel nvidia lib32-nvidia-utils lib32-mesa-libgl
gpasswd -a $USER bumblebee
sudo systemctl enable bumblebeed
rebootBut when i try to test it out i get the output:
primusrun glxspheres64
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID 635 does not belong to any known sessionSo i whent onto the wiki and found this: (and also installed bbswitch)
systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID XXX does not belong to any known session
If the console output is (PID varies):
[ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID 753 does not belong to any known session
[ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
In /etc/mkinitcpio.conf change the MODULES var to:
MODULES="i915 bbswitch"
Or:
MODULES="i915 nouveau bbswitch"
And run:
# mkinitcpio -p linuxmkinitcpio ran fine with no errors. After i rebooted i got promoted with the same error. Can anyone give me a hint on if im missing someting?

You have both linux 3.19 an linux 4 - does this happen when you boot both kernels & kernel images?

You have both linux 3.19 an linux 4 - does this happen when you boot both kernels & kernel images?
The reason why i have v4 is to get mouse scoll on my laptop to work. As i understand it's okay to have multiple kernels? I select my kernel in the GRUB menu. Can this add any issues? Am i missing someting?
I can also add that i just tried this solution without any progress.
Offline
So which kernel are you trying to run bumblebee on?
If you try to run it on v4 you probably need to compile the nvidia modules against this version.
What does
systemctl status bumblebeedgive you right after reboot?
I put at button on it. Yes. I wish to press it, but I'm not sure what will happen if I do. (Gune | Titan A.E.)

I always use v4 and have been used when i installed the drivers. Anything i need to do?

I decided to try and change to bumblebee-git. Did not work out but gave me another error:
[ 99.691916] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) /dev/dri/card0: failed to set DRM interface version 1.4: Permission denied
[ 99.691968] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.Wiki told me this, But with no success:
This could be worked around by appending following lines in /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia (see here):
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "DiscreteNvidia"
EndSectionEverything worked fine on my previous optimus laptop from asus. Is it someting im missing with those "new" GPUs? It's a Geforce 840m.

So which kernel are you trying to run bumblebee on?
If you try to run it on v4 you probably need to compile the nvidia modules against this version.
And also the module for bbswitch.
EDIT: from your Xorg.8.log it seems that you are using bumblebee with nouveau drivers. Therefore changes in the nvidia related configs won't apply

Hi again dice, I made a fresh install of arch and i have bumblebee up and running now. No issues. Currently im running the 3.19.2-1 kernel but i do have to install v4 to get my mousepad working on my laptop. Could you possible give me a short step by step guide of how i can make it work with the new kernel? How do i compile things against a newer kernel?

I get this error
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID 6333 does not belong to any known session
However after I attempt a second time it works fine. I have been testing bumblebee across many Distributions, Ubuntu, OpenSuse 13.2/Tumbleweed, Fedora22, Elementary OS. etc.. It is a common issue. So I think it is not specific to a Kernel, it more looks like a bug of some sort, Maybe with bumblebee or not. I have tested this on my Lenovo Laptop Z70-50 . My hardware Specs are as below.

Do you also see similar behaviour ? Please let me know so that I could log a bug for this as it would then be established that it works fine after a second or 3rd attempt.?

I had the same error message trying to use primusrun / optirun :
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID xxxx does not belong to any known session
It used to work fine a couple of kernel versions ago, when I initially setup bumblebeed I applied most hints from the bumblebee wiki page.
I discovered for me bumblebee started working again if I reloaded the bbswitch module (rmmod bbswitch & modprobe bbswitch)
One of the hints from the wiki page was to add bbswitch module to /etc/mkinitcpio.conf for early loading, but once I REMOVED the module from etc/mkinitcpio.conf again, everything works again as expected.
I suppose loading the bbswitch module early, causes it to be loaded in a wrong (no) session context somehow.
I don't know if this will help solve your issue, but I thought I'd leave it here for reference.
