bumblebee problems with GTX660M

Hey..

I recently reinstalled arch and now optirun [Application] won't work anymore. I spent a day to search after a solution, but hopeless

Re: bumblebee problems with GTX660M

Same issue here! Linux 3.10.6, Nvidia 325.15-1 on a Nvidia GT650M. I would post my logs but the syntax looks exactly the same as the post above me.

Re: bumblebee problems with GTX660M

Same problem here. There is a related discussion on https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bu … issues/455, but I found no working solution so far.

Re: bumblebee problems with GTX660M

Downgrading the kernel to 3.9.8 has solved the issue for me.

These are the packages I had to build with makepkg.
nvidia-utils 319.32-1
nvidia 319.32-2
linux 3.9.8-1
I took them as-is, didn't modify the PKGBUILDs. I'm sure there's a way to use the newer nvidia drivers, but this works for me.

Had to uninstall bbswitch, reboot and install the bbswitch-git version from the AUR.

Re: bumblebee problems with GTX660M

It has been almost a month now and I still experience the very same problem here. I also tried downgrading as a workaround as suggested by bwrsandman but even that did not make it work for me. I did read somewhere that 3.11 might fix some of it - I really hope since right now is the time I need that extra horsepower.

Re: bumblebee problems with GTX660M

Can safely report that after upgrading to Linux 3.11.1, my nvidia drivers are now working again.
