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.
