[opensuse-factory] openSUSE leap 15.0 - Bumblebee does not work

Dear list readers, Today i downloaded http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.0/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.0-D... and tried to install it on my Clevo P651HP6: Intel Core i7-7820HK KabyLake-CPU Intel HD Graphics 630 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card LG 3840x2160 IPS-display The UEFI allows to choose either "DISCRET" or "MSHYBRID" for the graphic-cards. openSUSE 42.3 already works fine on that machine with the UEFI-graphic-cards-option set to "MSHYBRID" and bumblebee installed. So i used SUSE studio Imagewriter to put the downloaded image on an USB-memory-stick and booted the USB-memory-stick (in UEFI-mode). That went as far as "Loading basic drivers ... ok" and then the cursor disappeared. => STRG+ALT+DEL to reboot the machine. Adding kernel parameter "3" to do a non-graphical installation ended up the same way. Adding kernel parameters "nomodeset 3" gave me a network installation mode (???) with no way (at least i found none) to use the USB-memory-stick as installation media. Kernel parameters "acpi_os_name="Linux" nomodeset 3" went as far as starting the installation program but then the screen went black and only the powerswitch got me out of this. Kernel parameters "acpi_os_name="Linux" nouveau.modeset=0 3" finally gave me the ncurses-based installer. But reading characters of 2 mm in height was not really fun (looks like 4K-displays are not very popular with openSUSE developers yet or may be they got much better eyes than me). I finished the installation and rebooted (setting kernel parameters "acpi_os_name="Linux" nouveau.modeset=0 3"). Then i did (as i did when installing 42.3): # nmtui (to get a WLAN connection) # zypper dup # zypper in terminus-bitmap-fonts # setfont ter-132b # echo "FONT=ter-132b" >>/etc/vconsole.conf # zypper in bumblebee VirtualGL-devel dkms # vi /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf (to add "blacklist nouveau") # usermod -a -G bumblebee,video username # systemctl enable bumblebeed # systemctl start bumblebeed # systemctl enable dkms # systemctl start dkms # dracut -f # init 6 Now the system stops somewhere in the startup process and leaves me with a flickering screen. The only way to get out of this is to press Ctrl+Alt+Del until the system reboots. So what were my mistakes? Thank you very much.
