I've finally gotten around to installing and configuring bumblebee.
It's working, sort of.  It's rather weird because it only works every
other time:

~~~~
% cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch 
0000:01:00.0 OFF

% primusrun glxspheres64 
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): 
Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at PCI:1:0:0.  Please

% primusrun glxspheres64
Polygons in scene: 62464
Visual ID of window: 0x20
Context is Direct
OpenGL Renderer: GeForce GT 750M/PCIe/SSE2
62.103457 frames/sec - 69.307458 Mpixels/sec
~~~~

And so it goes on.  The next run of `primusrun` fails, usually with
the message

~~~~
% primusrun glxspheres64
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) Server terminated 
successfully (0). Closing log file.
~~~~

the next run works.  And so on.  Very strange behaviour I think.  And
the $SEARCH_ENGINE doesn't really offer any help either, most people
seem to have the problem that it never works, not that it works 50% of
the times :(

Any and all help much appreciated.

Most software today is very much like an Egyptian pyramid with
millions of bricks piled on top of each other, with no structural
integrity, but just done by brute force and thousands of slaves.
