Public bug reported:
When I remove bumblebee from my system and reboot Unity refuses to
start. Lightdm works as expected. Reinstalling bumblebee through a shell
(and rebooting) makes everything work again. The strange thing is that
bumblebee did NOT work when I removed it, so I couldn't run software on
the discrete GPU. This must mean that removing bumblebee removes some
other essential package. After reinstalling bumblebee the discrete GPU
now works.
--DISCLAIMER!! SOME PROFESSIONAL GUESSING IS ONGOING!-- ;-)
Could the problem be that 'bbswitch-dkms' is removed but the integrated
graphics not correctly configured? Or has this module no "power" over the
integrated GPU? Just guessing here, I have no idea.
