Ubuntu 15.04, bumlebee and nvidia GT540M, bugs?
Hello!
I have a system:
Ubuntu 15.04
nVidia gt540m
Problem with bumlebeed.
I installed the utility written above from the official stable repository, when I run programs with the optirun attribute, I get the following error
[ 4971.223037] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: Could not load GPU driver
[ 4971.223155] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.

I have 15.10, and depending on the installed version of the proprietary driver, I constantly have to change this section:
[driver-nvidia]
KernelDriver=nvidia_355
PMMethod=auto
LibraryPath=/usr/lib/nvidia-355:/usr/lib32/nvidia-355
XorgModulePath=/usr/lib/nvidia-355/xorg,/usr/lib/xorg/ modules
XorgConfFile=/etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia
