PRIME multi-GPU support was added to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1.0.2.
See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTE4MzA
When using this driver in conjunction with xserver 1.13 it should no
longer be necessary to use Bumblebee.
If you need the NVIDIA GPU to scan-out what is being ren
My GT425M now works with nouveau (using the builds from xorg-edgers + kernel
3.2.2+ from source) in combination with Bumblebee: http://bumblebee-project.org/

I can confirm that the nvidia driver works with Bumblebee. Although the
nouveau driver supports NVC0, it will not work out-of-the-box with
Optimus cards. It may work with Bumblebee though.
The recommended method on installing Bumblebee is:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mj-casalogic/bumblebee
Can you please navigate to /sys/firmware/acpi/tables and run:
grep MXMS *

output or not, and if there is please post the output here.

There is no match. If you're interested, I'm working on an ACPI tables database
(mainly for Bumblebee) which will allow users to submit their tables. This does
not include dynamic tables though, just the tables retrieved using acpidump.

Excellent! You may wish to consider collaborating with Ben Skeggs - see

I presume that where he says "If this isn't present" he means "If this
is present".

Lekensteyn, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com

After further investigation, the root cause is that this GT 425M is not
supported by the Nouveau driver, supplied with Ubuntu.
According to the status matrix at
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix (GT425M is part of the

My guess is that the problem is much worse than just lack of driver
support, because if you can't turn the intel card off via the BIOS, you
can't use the nvidia card because the video output is driven by the
intel card, meaning it's not as simple as just writing a driver for the
nvidia card - you a
