Hi, I probably do some silly mistake, but I can't manage it to work. I have NVIDIA GeForce GT630M (2 GB memory, 96 CUDA cores) and I followed http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers#The_repository_way to install original drivers to be able to use full power of the chip. $ lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 630M] (rev a1)
Uh. This is Optimus technology, isn't it? Yes, it is: <http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-630m>. I think you need to install the butterfly package as well, as it is mentioned in <https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers#Easy_way_to_get_NVIDIA_driver s>. See also <http://bumblebee-project.org/>.
I installed it (version 3 from šumski's repository). I did it over again with same result (see below). When I installed x11-video-nvidiaG02, it also installed x11-video-nvidiaG03 and related nvidia-... packages. And yes, I'm member of video and bubmblebee groups.
OK, did you read </usr/share/doc/packages/x11-video-nvidiaG03/html/optimus.html> then? Or any other file in this directory?
Previously not. After reading it, still don't get the point...
BTW, in supportedchips.html in this directory you can see that x11-video-nvidiaG03 supports the GT630M chip so that you can uninstall the G02 variants, just to avoid that they fight each other.
Why didn't I stayed with Intel graphics?
I installed (for my G96 [GeForce 9400 GT]): - nvidia-computeG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 - nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-desktop-319.32_k3.7.10_1.1-15.1.x86_64 - x11-video-nvidiaG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 all from http://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/12.3
Now I have only the 03 packages. When I run # nvidia-debugdump --dumpall FATAL: Module nvidia not found. NVIDIA: failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module. Error: nvmlInit(): Driver Not Loaded # nvidia-modprobe FATAL: Module nvidia not found. # rpm -qa |grep nvidia nvidia-settings-290.10-1.9.x86_64 nvidia-computeG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-desktop-319.32_k3.7.10_1.1-15.1.x86_64 x11-video-nvidiaG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 # rpm -qa |grep bumblebee bumblebee-2.4.1-4.1.x86_64 I feel lost. :-(

This might be because of the dual video chipset in your box. I only found a russian text about it, <http://ru.opensuse.org/SDB:NVidia_Optimus>, but no translations.
It has only Nvidia graphic card. BIOS has no setting related to graphic card. Pardon? Didn't I read
$ lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 630M] (rev a1)
in your first post? There are two graphics controllers, and bumblebee should allow switching between them.
Hehe... HP's product page lists just the Nvidia as graphic card, so that I automatically supposed it has only one card. Neither product specifications mention 2 graphic controllers. Confusing.
Nvidia generates this xorg.conf: I use nvidia drivers, and I have no xorg.conf. If you work on real hardware, there are way too many "vmware" and "vbox" entries in this file.
It does't work. This is report of Xorg log:

Yes, and now we see that the driver does not find any device.
Yes, but why?
I use VirtualBox (if that matters), but I have no idea why there is any vmware section - I haven't installed it and I'm not going to install it. I also lost boot splash screen although all packages should be installed. Well, never mind at all. ;-)
Ahem... are you installing the driver inside a VirtualBox VM? If not, you can delete all this, and all the VMWare things too. It is there to give openSUSE some help when started inside a virtual machine, not on a host that runs VirtualBox or VMWare Player. I suggest you rename xorg.conf to something that xorg does not look for, like xorg.conf.nonsense ;-). So xorg's autodetect feature will be startet, and might become successful.
I installed openSUSE to real HW, HP ENVY dv6 notebook. I also use it as VirtualBox host. You mean, that xorg.conf should be recreated during startup? ;-)
You might have to run mkinitrd again to have a splash screen fitting to the detectd X display device. If there is any...
