  Description     : Bumblebee aims to provide support for NVIDIA Optimus laptops for GNU/Linux distributions

 Bumblebee aims to provide support for nVidia Optimus laptops. These laptops
 are built in such a way that the nVidia graphics card can usually not be used.
 With Bumblebee, a X server for the nVidia card is started and frames are
 transferred to the Intel GPU using VirtualGL. Power saving is accomplished with
 the bbswitch kernel module. Supported drivers are nvidia and nouveau.
