I have laptop with Nvidia GT 555M video card.
System Ubuntu 12.10, kernel Linux 3.5.0-17-generic
step what i do:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bumblebee/stable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidiarestart system
optirun glxgears
This message give me:
Cannot access secondary GPU - error: Could not load GPU driver
Aborting because fallback start is disabled.Open
sudo gedit /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf
and changeDriver=
toDriver=nvidia
andKernelDriver=nvidia-current
toKernelDriver=nvidia
. Restart the system and runoptirun glxgears
.This message gives me:
The Bumblebee daemon has not been started yet or the socket path /var/run/bumblebee.socket was incorrect.
Could not connect to bumblebee daemon - is it running?
Anybody have idea?!
KernelDriver=nvidia-current
is correct if you have installed the nvidia-current
package, you should not change that on Ubuntu. Since Ubuntu 12.10, you need to install the kernel headers yourself.
So, revert your KernelDriver
change (the Driver=
one does not matter) and install the kernel headers:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
This should automatically build the nvidia module. When this is completed, reboot or start the Bumblebee daemon:
sudo start bumblebeed
Then try running optirun glxspheres
again.
