Title:
  Bumblbeed cannot launch X server due to SUID X wrapper

Status in bumblebee package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The same problem as reported upstream in https://github.com/Bumblebee-
  Project/Bumblebee/issues/704 - secondary Xorg fails to start because
  it is being executed SUID by Xorg.wrap. Disabling executable bits on
  /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg.wrap makes it work.

  Patch in https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/pull/743
  allows setting Xorg binary path in bumblebee.conf working around this
  issue.

  As a side note - as shipped bumblebee contains references to nvidia-
  current, but it appears at least some of nvidia packages do not set
  this alias. I suppose when I started with Ubuntu using 14.04,
  nvidia-340 was current; I never changed this version since then. Now
  it is no more current so I had to edit bumblebee.conf to explicitly
  point to nvidia-340.
