Hello. I can't offer much help in the way of fixing your problem, but I can mention that I am also having issues with bumblebee not working. I think this is due to a recent kernel update, and there hasn't been an update to bumblebee yet to fix it. The problem you're encountering could be related, if you've just tried to install it within the last couple days.

Mine had been working, then it stopped. I tried a full reinstall of bumblebee and didn't have any luck. I think we might just need to wait for an update.

**gogalthorp** · 10-Feb-2014, 12:59

You can always drop back a kernel version

can i disable the nvidia GPU for now ? maybe until Bumblebee worked on openSUSE 13.1

You said that you followed the smithfarm directions. Did you install the prop. nvidia drivers then? As your errors are all related to the OSS nouveau drivers.

It's probably the same error that I'm now getting. I started running into problems with bumblebee as well and wanted to do a reinstall. Here's what happens to me when it gets to installing x11-video-nvidia:
