I've been having a lot of trouble with using Bumblebee, a lot of them can be found over at the thread I've posted on Bumblebee's issues. Essentially, no matter what I do, if I blacklist the nvidia module I won't be able to use optirun.
Initially I thought I had just done something wrong with Bumblebee, but with more testing I got to try and turn on bbswitch manually. This is the result:
leonardo@leonardo-TM1703:~$ sudo tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<ON
ON
leonardo@leonardo-TM1703:~$ cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch
0000:01:00.0 OFF
From a few tests it looks like bbswitch is automatically getting reset to OFF.
Some more info. My grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=force i915.modeset=1 nouveau.modeset=0 nogpumanager acpi_osi=! acpi_osi=\"Windows 2013\""
My blacklist:
blacklist nouveau
blacklist nvidia
blacklist nvidia-drm
blacklist nvidia-modeset
alias nouveau off
alias nvidia-drm off
alias nvidia-modeset off

Info about my system:
Optirun DOES run if
blacklist nvidiais removed, but of course power use is through the roof if I do that.At this point I'm fairly sure the issue is with bbswitch and not with Bumblebee, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
