Cannot use discrete card (Nvidia Optimus)

hoome · 2015-07-27 02:18:40

Hello,

Since today i cannot use my discrete card anymore, both primusrun and optirun arent working

I'm using nvidia proprietary and already tried to downgrade to linux-lts or to nvidia-340 without any success.

[artur:DeadPower] ~ > primusrun assaultcube
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID 1132 does not belong to any known session

What happened before it stopped working? Or better... what changes/updates have you performed between the last time it worked and the first time it didn't?

EDIT: Have you gone through the bumblebee Wiki entry and checked, whether your setup is correct?

Thanks for the reply, i did a system upgrade before stops working, i think that the only package that could affect the driver was the kernel, but, even installing the lts version didnt solve it.

I solve the problem by uninstalling all video drivers and bumblebee related files (including lib32), making sure that all files from /usr/lib/nvidia and /usr/lib32/nvidia didnt exists and reinstalled everything again. I think that some cruscial file was missing from the system but i couldnt track wich of then was, the pirmus and bumblebee started to work fine again.

Thanks so much for the reply, i was just going desesperated because i was thinking that the video card just went to space and that cannot happen.
