Re: Dell XPS with fedora 16.... bumblebee?
I think you can try using the installation script as detailed in the
website. see below:
# Using the installation script:
--------------
First, you need to install VirtualGL > 2.2.1 (2.2.90 is advised) and
nvidia driver.
Tarballs can be found at
https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/downloads
Download the tarball named like bumblebee-VERSION.tar.gz, extract and
install it:
1. Download
2. Extract:
$ tar xf bumbleee-VERSION.tar.gz
3. Change your directory to the extracted folder:
$ cd bumblebee-VERSION
4. Run the installer:
$ sudo ./install
Installation instructions for getting the code from git:
$ git clone git://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee.git
Users who want to test the development code should run:
$ git clone git://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee.git -b
develop --depth 1
Then in order to install:
$ cd Bumblebee
$ sudo ./install
Then follow the other steps,
Cheers,
Albert.
