Hey, guys

Bumblebeed and Optimus seem to work, but there are some annoying errors, such as I am able to start bumblebeed, but rc-status shows it as stopped and vgl seems to fail to start:

Code:
/etc/init.d/vgl -v --debug start


(Full ouput here): http://lpaste.net/143889

Code:

...
+ start
+ ebegin 'Starting VirtualGL'
 * Starting VirtualGL ...
+ truncate --size=0 /var/lib/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key
+ '[' -z /root/.Xauthority:0 ']'
+ '[' -e /root/.Xauthority:0 ']'
++ xauth -f /root/.Xauthority:0 list
++ awk '{print $3;exit}'
+ xauth -f /var/lib/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key add :0 .
xauth: (argv):1:  bad "add" command line
+ eend 1                                                                          [ !! ]
+ exit 1
 * ERROR: vgl failed to start
[/quote]

/etc/conf.d/vgl.conf :
Code:

...
# sddm:
XAUTHORITY="/root/.Xauthority${DISPLAY}"
...


So it looks like an error. Still I am able to do:

Code:
 
# bumblebeed start &
[ 1113.350719] [ERROR][XORG] (EE) /dev/dri/card0: failed to set DRM interface version 1.4: Permission denied
[ 1113.350763] [WARN][XORG] (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device for DPI computation.                                                                                   
[ 1113.350789] [ERROR][XORG] (EE) /dev/dri/card0: failed to set DRM interface version 1.4: Permission denied                                                                   
[ 1114.507746] [ERROR][XORG] (EE) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
$ optirun bash
$ glxgears
6348 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1269.476 FPS
6337 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1267.363 FPS


So the bumblebeed starts, OpenGL works, I can run Steam games, etc. Still this error is bugging me and also rc-status shows bumblebee as stopped.

Is this error bogous? Should it be ignored or can it be fixed somehow?


Thanks,
Vlad
