Hi there:
        For some time now I was trying to make Bumblebee compatible with the
open Nouveau driver. I had better luck than my expectations and I want
to test this on as many laptops as we can. The instructions can be found
in the "nouveau" branch of my GiHub repo:

https://github.com/Samsagax/bumblebee/tree/nouveau

Please try to test it and report back on a GitHub issue. Currently this
has been tested on ArchLinux but it has been made as distro-independent
as I was able.
To add some spice to this, I've been testing vga-switcheroo switches and
in  simple script it is able to find on itself the correct ACPI methods
to call to turn ON/OFF the nVidia card and it's safe, no side effects
(as far as I'm aware), and distro-independent. The only "down-side" is
that it works on nouveau driver only.

Hope this could be helpfull in some way. And thanks in advance to all.
