Re: No fun with windump

 

You're doing it wrong. Run windump using Bumblebee's X server. Get rid of
the xorg.conf you are using. Classic windump is buggy regardless of whether
you use Nvidia or Nouveau. Regardless, it shouldn't be used since it uses a
terrible system-wide xorg.conf.

I'll do a write-up later, but this is what you should be aiming for:
