(In reply to Bit Juggler from comment #16) > Well, there are still lots of errors in the Xorg.0.log: As far as I can tell, these errors are harmless (should be considered as warnings). > [ 567.532] (EE) [drm] Failed to open DRM device for pci:0000:01:00.0: -19 Following the bumblebee tutorial you blacklisted nouveau and did not install nvidia. X server sees nvidia GPU and tries to use xf86-video-nouveau, which tries to open a DRM device for that PCI address, but founds none (there is none because the nouveau kernel module is blacklisted), so it displays this error and X server falls back to fbdev. > [ 567.737] (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Device or resource busy Here I am less sure on how big issue is it, but I think it should not be problem either. The fbdev driver failed to set palette for the nvidia's framebuffer. Perhaps the nvidia's fbdev implementation does not support it. It may prevent things like setting gamma correction, but the rendering should still work. As per comment #4, you do not plan to use fbdev after the installation anyway. > [ 567.744] (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering This is not a problem. The the GLX extension is enabled so X server will provide it, but none of its drivers actually supports acceleration (no nvidia or nouveau), so it has to fallback to software rendering.

So now with the patched X server you were able to boot and get to console without crashing. If you proceed with the bumblebee setup, do things work right? If not, the bug is assigned to bumblebee maintainer.
