Subject: 3.0.1 - Bug/Issue report for Lenovo G780 ; i7-3612QM ; GT 630M.
Nvidia 310.14 [ERROR]
To: lekensteyn@xxxxxxxxx


Dear Bumblebee team,

Firstly I'd like to personally commend you guys for your outstanding
effort. I would like to contribute towards your project, even though I do
not have any programming knowledge. I trust this report may be useful to
you and kindly request it get forwarded to the appropriate eyes. Details
attached along with bug report.

Ubuntu 12.10 64bit, GNOME Remix.
Linux 3.5.0-17-generic
Nvidia 310.14
Bumblebee 3.0.1

i7-3612QM + GT 630M

I installed according to guidelines and rebooted:

==========
bean@bean-laptizz:~$ optirun glxspheres
[   76.644681] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE)
NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at PCI:1:0:0.  Please

[   76.644725] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
==========

I have consulted the troubleshoot and FAQ but to no avail. I do not know
how to interpret the kern.log as followed:

==========

It might be worth mentioning that my wireless card (Broadcom BCM4313)
stopped working after reboot... I proceeded to blacklist nouveau anyways,
rebooted and wireless worked again but to no difference in bumblebee errors.

Kindest Regards from New Zealand!
