Hello,

Is there someone who has installed BumbleBee on its Linux to activate its NVidia graphic card (with Optimus) and has succeeded to use Gem with it. I would like to know how i can do to use Gem with my NVidia GT555M (with Optimus). https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee I can launch application glxspheres that use the NVidia graphic card with : $ optirun glxspheres

sounds like you should be able to launch Pd with $ optirun pd-gem

i guess that optirun is a script that sets some environment variables in order to force the use of some spcial libraries that activate the nvidia card. i don't see a problem with using pd/Gem in this context.
