Squeeze and Wheezy are old, and neither contained bumblebee. Try using jessie instead, with no xorg.conf after installing xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and bumblebee. If you don't see the external monitor in xrandr, then you'll have to provide the xrandr -q; and Xorg.0.log files again. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com Something the junk advertisers don't seem to understand: we live in an information super-saturated world. If I don't want to buy something, no amount of shouting or propagandizing will budge me; all it will do is get me annoyed. On the other hand, if I have a need for your product, I can seek it out in an eyeblink. -- Charles Stross "Toast: A Con Report" in _Toast_ p136 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
