I can confirm that the nvidia driver works with Bumblebee. Although the
nouveau driver supports NVC0, it will not work out-of-the-box with
Optimus cards. It may work with Bumblebee though.

The recommended method on installing Bumblebee is:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mj-casalogic/bumblebee
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install bumblebee
At the moment, the properietary driver is used, but this may change in the 
future. In fact, Bumblebee default to using nouveau in OpenSUSE.
