problems initilizing card in 3.13 kernel in fedora 20?

[gsgatlin]

@thesourcehim suggested that I open a issue here about bbswitch. It seems there is some problem on fedora 20 with kernel 3.13.3-200.fc20.x86_64. I cannot get it to work. Perhaps bbswitch didn't really enable the card, so xorg failed to initialize?

Here are some log files:

/var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/suxzP8S9

/var/log/Xorg.8.log: http://pastebin.com/ahbC8VzL

It doesn't seem to matter if I use dkms or compile the module in a kmod rpm in a vm. I get the same errors.

After optirun fails the card seems to be left "on"

[root@y470b ~]# cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch 0000:01:00.0 ON

Any ideas concerning things I could try? Thanks a lot.

Could these be the lines in the syslog where the failure is occurring?

Feb 17 11:05:33 y470b kernel: [ 79.064545] NVRM: rm_init_adapter failed for device bearing minor number 0 Feb 17 11:05:33 y470b kernel: [ 79.064574] NVRM: nvidia_frontend_open: minor 0, module->open() failed, error -5
