Hello I’ve installed latest version of Bumblebee in my laptop. Most program works find. However, I just noticed that some software will failed with messages as following:

```

Does anybody knows what’s happening?

This software can be obtained from:

[http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?PackageName=VMD](http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?PackageName=VMD)

I wish the developer can make a test for it.

Thx a lot

Which version of SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED) are you using?  
Please post the output from “cat /etc/\*release”.

I am using SLED 12.

Problem finally solved:

one need not only

```auto
add the line "blacklist nouveau" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf
```

but also

```auto
add option "nouveau.modeset=0" to the end of boot loader option from "Yast-->boot loader-->Boot Loader option-->optional kernel command line parameter"
```

Finally it works. I found that openSUSE 13.1 & 13.2 also have similar issue. Both of them can be solved with similar methods.

Ciao

## I’m glad that you found a solution. Thanks for reporting back as that should help others in the same situation.
