Re: Problem to run bumblebee

 

The installation of the nvidia driver has failed for some reason, I cannot
see the "nvidia-current" module in your lspci output although
nvidia-current is installed. Please open a terminal and run:

    sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current

Regards,
Lekensteyn

PS. a new version of Bumblebee is soon to be released, if you've twitter
