Congratulations to the bumblebee team. I have finally been able to run
optirun which is using the nvidia GPU.

Here's the specs:-

baseboard-manufacturer: [sudo] password for realallen:
MEDION
baseboard-product-name: P7812
baseboard-version     : To be filled by O.E.M.
system-manufacturer   : MEDION
system-product-name   : P7812
system-version        : To be filled by O.E.M.
bios-vendor           : American Megatrends Inc.
bios-version          : 0.45
bios-release-date     : 09/15/2011

And here's the proof:-

realallen@allenb-P7812:~$ sudo optirun glxspheres
Polygons in scene: 62464
Visual ID of window: 0x21
Context is Direct
OpenGL Renderer: GeForce GT 555M/PCIe/SSE2
153.095357 frames/sec - 160.603153 Mpixels/sec
realallen@allenb-P7812:~$ glxspheres
Polygons in scene: 62464
Visual ID of window: 0xcc
Context is Direct
OpenGL Renderer: Software Rasterizer
9.102808 frames/sec - 9.549209 Mpixels/sec
9.099225 frames/sec - 9.545451 Mpixels/sec

The GPU execution speed is about 18 times faster than the integrated Intel
graphics.

Fantastic.
