Normally your card should be off when you've just booted.

Try optirun glxgears and see what happen.

Oh... Did you disable some Ubuntu repo ?

ghost commented 13 years ago

no I dont think so:/ can I check it?

ArchangeGabriel commented 13 years ago

Yes you can check but in fact it's my fault... glxgears is in a package called mesa-utils. So run : sudo apt-get update mesa-utils

ghost commented 13 years ago

it works now:) it is running now I'll be back when it ends..

ArchangeGabriel commented 13 years ago

It would never end... I hope you will get this message.

You have to end it by closing the window.

Could you please upload the output after it prints ~5 lines with running just glxgears and optirun glxgears ?

ArchangeGabriel commented 13 years ago

You didn't see it because we posted at the same time.

Otherwise, this is perfect, so everything is running fine ! You can close the issue if you're not having any other problem with bumblebee.

ghost commented 13 years ago

thanks. so now which video card using currently? nvidia or intel??

ArchangeGabriel commented 13 years ago

Your using the intel one, the nvidia is disabled at the boot time.

To run a 3D app with the power of the nvidia card, just launch your program via the terminal with optirun before (example : glxgears -> optirun glxgears).

This will enable the nvidia card as long as the application run, and will disable it when you will close the application.

Of course, you can run more than one app at the same time on the nvidia, juste optirun each of them.

ghost commented 13 years ago

Is there a way to check is it work fine? switching cards? hımm. thank you very much for your help.

ghost commented 13 years ago
