Bumblebee is no good here. The machine's intergrated card is switched off, so this should be treated as an NVIDIA-only situation.
If the reporter wrote "integrated graphics disabled", isn't this desired in this case? I use the Bumblebee nVidia drivers on ZBook 15 already a year, also with an integrated Intel graphics and nVidia card and I don't have general trouble provided the proper BIOS settings. Integrated: Intel HD Graphics (disabled) Discrete: nVidia GK208GLM [Quadro K610M]
DKMS is nice, but it doesn't patch the NVIDIA driver when it fails to compile against a new kernel in TW.
I'm using http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Bumblebee-Project:/nVidia:/l.... Isn't the Bumblebee nVidia repository already some kind of "guarantee" by the maintainer for compiling against the TW kernel not to fail? In worst case it fails to install, which I haven't noticed to this time. I guess the maintainers of this repository would not launch a new version if it won't be installable, or who checks whether there is a basic problem. They just can't guarantee there is no implementation problem with the driver in common. Of course, there should be taken care of X Server ABI versions, which use to be on the cutting edge between the Tumbleweed kernel and nVidia native drivers. You can also choose a fixed driver version, see http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Bumblebee-Project:/nVidia:/, but this is probably the worse choice due to the incrementing X Server ABIs in Tumbleweed. Maybe we should somehow take and show a video shot of the flickering and "stripes" initially mentioned. According to the initial description I saw this effect also for "radeon". There's a big question mark left whether this is a "nouveau" problem or whether to focus also to other layers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
