You can keep the nvidia-current driver installed, but in version
3.0-1~...ppa2 and below,
the uninstallation of bumblebee does not restore some settings properly
which breaks
non-Optimus systems.

To uninstall Bumblebee, run:

    sudo apt-get purge bumblebee
    sudo update-alternatives --auto x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf
    sudo update-alternatives --auto i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf
    sudo update-alternatives --auto gl_conf
One or two of the last three commands may fail, this is not fatal.

Regards,
Lekensteyn
