Hi all
I have a problem with running Bumblebee for a laptop using NVIDIA OPTIMUS.
I've read this post but nothig changed.
I'm using Intel driver and Nouveau...
#optirun glxgears -info
[ 186.336392] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) Failed to load module "mouse" (module does not exist, 0)[ 186.336470] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
What am I have to do?
Please help...

Thank you for answering:

And I've installed this:
Is it related to the error because it says: Failed to load module "mouse" (module does not exist, 0)
#pacman -S xf86-input-mouse

In In my system /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia I had to change the Device option "ConnectedMonitor". You will have to switch from "FDP" to "CRT-0". try if it works.

Sorry! I don't get the point...
You mean I have to change "FDP" to "CRT-0" in /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia...
You mean this or some thing else...
Cause locate nvidia | grep ko in this post has an answer but for me it is nothing...
And another question:
Could you please show me a way to switch off NVIDIA GPU?
My laptop getting so hot while I'm working with it. (I've installed bbswitch but I don't know if it works)

cat /etc/modules-load.d/bbswitch.conf
bbswitch
cat /etc/modprobe.d/bbswitch.conf
options load_state=0 unload_state=1
cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia_blacklist.conf
blacklist nvidia
blacklist nouveau
This is all you need to do. Cheers

update the bbswitch to the latest version , becoz there is a recent acpi change in 3.8 kernel which prevents switching off the Nvidia.

You got it right and I didn't mean anything else.

Hey guys
I do this several times and skim through many posts in forum but I can't stop my nVidia card:
cat /etc/modules-load.d/bbswitch.conf bbswitch
cat /etc/modprobe.d/bbswitch.conf options load_state=0 unload_state=1
cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia_blacklist.conf blacklist nvidia blacklist nouveau
This is all you need to do. Cheers
And the answer is:
cat: /etc/modules-load.d/bbswitch.conf: No such file or directory
cat: /etc/modprobe.d/bbswitch.conf: No such file or directory
cat: /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia_blacklist.conf: No such file or directory
Could you please help me more...
My laptop is getting hot while I'm working.

Hi
Guys I find this:
/etc/modprobe.d/bbswitch.conf
options bbswitch load_state=0 unload_state=1
Is this switch off nVidia card while using laptop to save power?
Offline
cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch is the one which will tell you if the switch is off.

See the readme linked above. Try `modinfo bbswitch` too.

Why don't you just do
tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<OFF
?
