Hi again :-)
I am installing leap on my new Asus GL552VW-CN113T that has an intel graphics chip and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 M. ... ...
Are there any performance differences (graphics card or system in general) between the two options?
IME the NVIDIA performs much better using suse-prime than using Bumblebee.
What would be your decision in my case?
Maybe this says it best: since testing the suse-prime packages Bo Simonsen made for openSUSE I'm a happy user of both the Intel and the NVIDIA. No way I'm going back to bumblebee.
Thanks you for the very clear answer. I'll give it a try. Some little things though puzzle me:
This won't work though with the drivers from the NVIDIA repo ( since they replace some openGL files by symlinks ).
With the new install I did /not/ add the nvidia repo. Have not tinkered anything in regard of graphics card since this install.. You need the drivers from the home:/
Bumblebee-Project:/nVidia:/latest/YOUR_openSUSE_Version repo.

You installed nvidia drivers using http://opensuse-community.org/nvidia.ymp also https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/512260-Leap-42-1-Optimus-system-w... points to there Which driver will I gave to select?
The one installed right now needs to be uninstalled,
Which one? No nvidia-repo installed. Yast search for "nvidia" give me the following installed packages: libdrm_nouveau2 libdrm_nouveau2-32bit xf86_video_nouveau xf86_video_nv you also need to force a
reinstall of the Mesa package, also Mesa-32bit if installed.
Just now, or after I did something else?
Next install the suse-prime packages through software.opensuse.org, read the notes on the package page.
Sorry for my ignorance and all those questions... and thanks for your help!
