Linux

Hello,
Today after trying out CCP Snorlax' new linux launcher, I found out that my client hasn't been using bumblebee, even though I thought it was. Here is the ingame display adapter setting.

I modified the start up script like this using "primusrun":

#!/bin/sh
appname=`basename $0 | sed s,\.sh$,,`

dirname=`dirname $0`
tmp="${dirname#?}"

if [ "${dirname%$tmp}" != "/" ]; then
dirname=$PWD/$dirname
fi
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$dirname
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
#$dirname/$appname "$@"
LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose primusrun $dirname/$appname "$@"

The launcher starts with the following errors:

Googling the OpenGL warnings seem to be normal and/or unimportant. About the QtWebEngine error I posted in this thread and it is not related to Bumblebee, I think.

I am using Arch and I followed the guide from the wiki. glxgears works with optirun.

I got it working. I reinstalled my whole setup and started from scratch using the Arch Wiki. I don't know if that did it, or the fact that I still had the nouveau driver being loaded in my "mkinitcpio.conf". I replaced that with nvidia and recompiled the kernal images with "mkinitcpio -p linux".

/etc/mkinitcpio.conf

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array.  For instance:
#     MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES="i915 nvidia"

# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""

Bumblebee now works with my own wine installation and CCP Snorlax' linux launcher.
