Wow, that's a nasty problem. Looks like bumblebee is tickling some sort of serious hardware bug in the NVIDIA card and its interaction with the system PCI bus in a way that's causing random memory corruption (at least) and possibly messing with other things, like bus traffic to the drives. I'm not sure the software is really at fault there, since that sort of corruption should not be possible at the hardware level, but that also means that the problem is likely to persist for quite a while since hardware can't be as easily patched. This is probably going to require the bumblebee upstream figure out what it's doing that's tickling this hardware bug and hopefully work around it. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
