You can have both bumblebee and nvidia-prime installed. Even nouveau +
PRIME would work, it just requires appriopriate configuration. This
could be useful for experimenting or if you want to use
bumblebeed/bbswitch to save power and to use nvidia-prime at other times
(requires restarting X though).

Detecting whether bumblebee is enabled or not probably requires checking
for checking whether `/etc/init/bumblebeed.conf.override` contains
`manual`. Upon installation the daemon is always started, but it might
fail to start in some cases (when the graphics card is hidden via BIOS
settings for example).
