https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896630 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896630#c0 Summary: On installation of bumblebee "blacklist nouveau" is not added to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 13.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: hakan.bergman@comhem.se QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/36.0.1985.125 Safari/537.36 optirun/primusrun gives following error: Cannot access secondary GPU: KMS not enabled Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Installation of bumblebee from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Bumblebee/openSUSE_13.1/ 2. 3. Actual Results: Nothing is added to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.con. Expected Results: Add the line "blacklist nouveau" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf. It's a simple typo in the file nvidia-bumlebee.spec in nvidia-bumblebee-340.32-2.1.src.rpm and possibly other versions of the rpm. This section: "if grep "nouveau" /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf > /dev/null ; then echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf fi" should be fixed like this: "if ! grep "nouveau" /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf > /dev/null ; then echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf fi" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But as I see it, modifying the /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf file just creates problems. For example, the blacklist would still be there after uninstalling the package. Wouldn't it be better to just create a separate file in /etc/modprobe.d/ owned by the package, which contains the blacklist?

This solves the uninstall.

Let's see what the maintainer thinks of this variant: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/249351 But it wouldn't matter on an Optimus system, it will run on the Intel chip anyway. There are a few Optimus system with a MUX so you can run the Nvidia card as

Besides newer Optimus chips don't support the implementation of a MUX AFAIK. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This bug report actually proves this, as the used grep "magic" didn't work as intended... ;) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
