[SOLVED] nvidia-bumblebee requires Nouveau after 3.8?

Hello all,

I made a fresh installation three weeks ago, following this guide:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Le … nkPad_T420

I used the Intel /Nvidia alternative from her:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bumblebee

Yesterday, I updated to Kernel 3.8. Therfore I had to uninstall nvidia-bumblebee (was need3.7). I removed all Bumblebeestuff and reinstalled it after the Kernel update with Intel / Nvidia again.
Now Xorg means "Nouveau is missig" and Bumblebee does not work.

Why Nouveau? I never installed this. Is it a bug in the new nvidia-bumblebee?
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-bumblebee/

Happy day
frog

Does the error come from Xorg, or from a pacman upgrade ?

If Xorg gives the error, please post your Xorg.0.log (use  a pastebin site).

Think so, but my Bumblebee does not come back in work after reinstall. Do you use pure nvidia-intel or nouveau?

Check /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf and see which driver it's using.

I have the intel drivers along with nvidia-bumblebee, if you are using nouveau then that may be why my fix didn't work for you

Hello all,

thank you for the fine support. The problem is solved now. I started a fresh Bumblebee installation. There were some different dependencies than yesterday. Maybe this is the difference - dunno. The Bumblebee flies agian.

have a good time!
