With linux 3.14-2 and xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.11-1, I get the following
errors with primus:

$ optirun -b primus xdriinfo
libGL is too old.
$ optirun -b primus driconf
libGL is too old.
$ primusrun driconf
libGL is too old.
$ primusrun xdriinfo
libGL is too old.

Using virtualgl or normal driver does not give these errors.

Hi Adrian,

By "normal driver", do you mean the proprietary nvidia driver?

Does this error still persist if you try rebuilding primus?

No, I mean intel driver with intel card.

Yes, I just rebuilt primus and primus-libs:amd64 and I still get the
same error.

Can you please file a bug report upstream at [1]? Also, if you're
willing to try the proprietary nvidia driver, can you please test with
that as well?

Hi Adrian,

Freenode, #bumblebee-dev:

10:51 vincent_c | amonakov: do you know what's going on in
https://bugs.debian.org/764403 ?
22:50 amonakov | vincent_c: driconf and xdriinfo rely on mesa-specific
symbols in libGL, which primus does not provide; to get
nouveau-specific dri settings, they can use "optirun -b none"

Regards,
Vincent
