I use an Optimus notebook and can't use official Nvidia drivers with Bumblebee. Also drivers newer than nvidia-331.38 in software center had issued with Boinc saying Nvidia library present but no GPU's. Finally solved my issue and running Boinc with nvidia-343.21 driver from Xorg-edgers... Problem was update-alternatives thing. I had set it to use mesa drivers because of sound issues in Skype. Now when I switch it to Nvidia-343 drivers Bumblebee can run Boinc without any issue. | |

Also I forgot to mention in the previous message that I had to install NVIDIA MODPROBE package so that Boinc detects Nvidia GPU and Cuda. Else it says drivers present but no GPU. | |
