OK, your Intel card is working, so after installing Bumblebee, it's supposed to switch the 3D GLX rendering to the Nvidia card if you run "optirun inxi -G", like so on my laptop:
Code: Select all
$ optirun inxi -G
Graphics: Device-1: Intel UHD Graphics 630 driver: i915 v: kernel
Device-2: NVIDIA GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile] driver: nvidia v: 390.87
Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.19.2 driver: intel resolution: 1920x1080~60Hz
OpenGL: renderer: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 v: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.87
And the Nvidia GPU indicator light on this laptop turns on for a second, then back off like it's supposed to.
But like I said, it seems MSI laptops can need a little more tweaking to get Bumblebee working.
