primusrun freezes

0mark · 2014-08-18 11:11:37

I just followed the wiki article for bumblebee. Using optirun works well, games as well as the glx demos. But when i try to use primusrun, the system freezes after a short time. First i ignored that, because optirun worked well enough. But apparently most steam games only run with primusrun. So i played the google game for a while, but did not found anything helpfull. A few people who have issues when using the touchpad, and one guy with a similiar problem who things he has hardware issue. But not using the touchpad did not change anything, and i dont think its a hardware problem since it works well with windows.

I have the default config from the wiki article. Anyone out there with a similar problem? Or tips?

Can you run a program with primus in a console and post the output?

Sure:

# primusrun glxspheres64 
Polygons in scene: 62464
Visual ID of window: 0x20
Context is Direct
OpenGL Renderer: GeForce GT 540M/PCIe/SSE2
62.074126 frames/sec - 68.371422 Mpixels/sec

Usually the first run of glxspheres64 is ok, the second will usually freeze.
