The default params are load_state=-1 unload_state=-1 ("do not change").
bumblebeed will write OFF to /proc/acpi/bbswitch which has no effect if
it was already off. So it does not matter what values you use for
load_state, the end result will be comparable to load_state=0.
On stop, bumblebeed does
Sorry for the delay…
I meant, it’s recommended only when you don’t use bumblebeed, but do you
think it can cause any harm if installed for everyone? For instance, can
this conflict with the setting in bumblebeed?
Currently, bumblebeed starts, loads bbswitch, and shutdown the card.
Right? On exit
The bbswitch init script is only recommended if you do not use bumblebee
with bumblebeed.
Otherwise, I suggest to set `TurnCardOffAtExit=false` in
/etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf.

I have suscribed both myself and Peter Lekensteyn to this bug.
Peter, do you think we should install the bbswitch.conf file by default
to remove bbswitch on halt for everyone? I see no downside of doing
these, since powered on card on exit won’t hurt anyone, while it helps
some people.
** Changed
** Summary changed:
- bbswitch-dkms causes forced shutdown (even in reboot)
+ bumblebee: bbswitch-dkms causes forced shutdown (even in reboot)
