i don't know how to test if bumblebee is really running or to see what errors there are if any. i just know the bb indicator says discrete graphics are off when i run apps that i have configured to use the discrete card.any help would be appreciated. will email bug report. thanks looking forward to using this

Please do the following : sudo apt-get purge bumblebee sudo apt-get install ppa-purge sudo ppa-purge ppa:mj-casalogic/bumblebee sudo ppa-purge ppa:mj-casalogic/ironhide sudo ppa-purge ppa:bumblebee/stable sudo apt-get update wget https://raw.github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/master/cleanup chmod +x cleanup sudo ./cleanup --force sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bumblebee/stable sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bumblebee

thanks for the fast reply, but i'm an idiot! it works fine. i just didn't realize you had to open the apps from the bumblebee indicator for it to initialize. great job people!
