I checked the configuration, see this link:

I checked, and i am getting the same errors. Looks like a bug in bumblebee, something the project has to fix.

With thunderbird everything is fine.
I asked another bumblebee packages if he has seen the same error.

I hardly use optirun, for me it's all about saving battery life.

I found one issue with the configuration file, change the following:

Code: Select all

XorgModulePath=/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia,/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers,/usr/lib64/xorg/modules
Then restart the bumblebeed serrvice

Everything works, except you get this error/warning, when you run optirun for firefox, you will get:

Code: Select all

(process:3550): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion `sys_page_size == 0' failed
I don't know if this is a bumblebee issue of firefox issue, i will have to contact the bumblebee project.

GREAT! This makes it work! Thank you so much! I don't care about firefox for optirun personally, I'm mainly using it for heavy graphics apps :) Just out of curiosity, why is it that the XorgModulePath paths need to be separated with a comma instead of semicolons?

Thank you very much once again!

Your welcome, thanks for testing.

That is described in the documentation, see https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bu ... figuration
