2015-12-21 12:08:19 Luca Osvaldo Mastromatteo description I'm using nvida-current drivers with bumblebee following the ubuntu wiki guide, rebooting, gpu-manager creates automatically an Xorg.conf overriding the correct bumblebee one. I had to rename in /usr/bin/gpu-manager to gpu-manager.old to fix this problem, with removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf When I install bumblebee and it's dependencies it should reboot correctly Instead, X.org fallback is runned. I'm using the latest Ubuntu, updated today. I have an Acer Aspire E5-571G with an Intel iGPU and a NVIDIA 820m (Optimus hybrid system) I'm using nvida-current drivers with bumblebee following the ubuntu wiki guide, rebooting, after executed just one time "primusrun glxgears" or another program with primus/optirun, when gpu-manager is triggered creates automatically an Xorg.conf probally overriding the correct bumblebee one located in /etc/bumblebee/ I had to rename in /usr/bin/gpu-manager to gpu-manager.old or disable via systemctl gpu-manager to fix this problem, with removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf and dpkg-reconfiguring the nvidia-bumblebee package to get lightdm enter into the user correctly and deleting the dconf folder in .config, unless, compiz crashes (strangely, it can't load openGL plugin) I don't really know why. Summarizing, the next time I reboot the pc or restart the display manager after executed primus/optirun successfully the first time, gpu-manager reconfigures everything. I can't even get to lightdm unless removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it can't join into the user (lightdm loop) unless i reconfigure nvidia-bumblebee package, and compiz crashes unless I delete the dconf configuration. I have also to delete gpu-manager from the init. Tried with reinstalling ubuntu a few times. When I install bumblebee and it's dependencies X should run correctly Instead, X.org fallback is executed. I'm using the latest Ubuntu, updated today.
