I have a weirds problems with ubuntu 15 when I try install bumblebee on my MSI GS60-2QE.

I had try many installations way especialy this one: How to install nVidia drivers with Bumblebee on Ubuntu 14.04

I only change the driver version: "nvidia-346-updates". But the problem persists. He look like this :

     optirun -vv glxspheres

[ 2189.102770] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
[ 2189.102777] [DEBUG]Killing all remaining processes.

In the "/var/log/syslog" I found that :

May 22 01:08:12 fondation bumblebeed[763]: modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:816 kmod_module_insert_module() could not find module by name='off'

May 22 01:08:12 fondation bumblebeed[763]: [ 2189.102629] [ERROR]Could not load GPU driver

I also generate a bumblebee bug-report, can be found here : Bug Report

If anyone has had the same problem and managed to solve it. I'd love he shares how to proceed.

I had the same problem. It seems you have to replace all hyphens with underscores in KernelDriver=nvidia-346-updates in /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf. So it should be KernelDriver=nvidia_346_updates

  • Thanks for your answer I changed my /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf but the problem is still here. What is the driver version you have install ? I try with 346-updates, maybe it's the problem.
