I did this to install bumblebee, turn off nvidia and get a much better battery 
life:
- Here is the official how to install bumblebee in Fedora 23 (dom0 is based on 
Fedora 23 afaik)
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bumblebee
- Download bumblebee-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm and 
bumblebee-nonfree-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
wget 
http://install.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/yum/itecs/public/bumblebee/fedora23/noarch/bumblebee-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
wget 
http://install.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/yum/itecs/public/bumblebee-nonfree/fedora23/noarch/bumblebee-nonfree-release-1.2-1.noarch.rpm
- Copy both files over to dom0 (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/copy-from-dom0/)
- Install both rpm files in dom0
sudo dnf -y -nogpgcheck install <rpmfile>
- Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/bumblebee-nonfree.repo and 
/etc/yum.repos.d/bumblebee.repo and replace '$releasever' (or similar) with a 
fixed value of '23'
- I don't know why, but I had to import the gpg keys manually once again:
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-bumblebee-nonfree-public
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-bumblebeepublic
- Last step: Just install the packages like mentioned in the official howto
sudo dnf install bumblebee-nvidia bbswitch-dkms primus kernel-devel

Now you can repoot and check within dom0 if optimus is running and your nvidia 
gpu is off, which may take some seconds
# cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch
0000:01:00.0 OFF

Finished. Hope that helps.
