   The current behavior, being not perfect, works. By default we use the   
   "normal" GPU and when needed for special programs (googleearth for ex.)   
   we switch to the nvidia GPU.

   Updates. I didn't change anything more.   
      
   Accordingly some sites this is a known issue that also happened in the   
   past. There is a turnaround for debian. A tried part of it but it didn't   
   work. The other part consists in installing a package I don't have here   
   in Opensuse.   
      
   From   
   https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756522   
      
   Part 1   
   Append the following screen-section to   
   /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia   
      
   Section "Screen"   
       Identifier "Default Screen"   
       Device "DiscreteNvidia"   
   EndSection   
      
   Part 2   
   Install xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
