Re: bbswitch
You don't have bumblebee installed
If you don't want to install bumblebee, then follow these instructions

You have to create it with the parameters written on the wiki. But if you enable bumblebeed service should be the same.

Re: bbswitch
I think there is a problem with bbswitch , when I run bumblebeed it returns :
FATAL: Module bbswitch not found.
[ 2412.863804] [ERROR]Module bbswitch could not be loaded (timeout?)
[ 2412.863855] [WARN]No switching method available. The dedicated card will always be on.

FATAL: Module bbswitch not found.
If you're using a custom kernel, you should build bbswtich similarly to this. Or you may find PKGBUILD for your specific kernel in the AUR.

Re: bbswitch
Didn't noticed that. Show the output of ls /lib/modules/3.16.4-1-ARCH then.

Re: bbswitch
version
That's it? Where did bbswitch and nvidia installed its modules then?
pacman -Ql bbswitch
pacman -Ql nvidia (in case you have proprietary driver installed)
