I have installed the latest driver 340.24 on a debian wheezy system. I am unable to get bumblebee to work.

$ optirun glxinfo
[1047192.952594] [ERROR]No bridge found. Try installing primus or virtualgl.

  • IIUC, nvidia-smi reports that the device is off and unsupported?

In your nvidia-smi output, “Off” refers to Persistence-Mode (off by default), and “Not Supported” refers to listing of compute (CUDA) processes not being supported for consumer (GeForce) GPUs.
