    Out of curiosity, is there a way to perform these installations without breaking the Intel driver as bahha pointed out?
    (And maybe update his method of how to fix it?)

    Thanks!
    I've never had the Intel driver break. Have you tried this install with Kali 1.1.0?

    Have you had the driver break on you? if it does, please post output from dmesg
    chown -R us ./base

    Yes, I just performed the install on 1.1.0a before posting this. Optirun works as it should but when I run glxgears I get this error:

    Code:
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
    dmesg output:

    @Rarity

    What are the contents of your /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia file?

    Do you have any other monitors connected to your laptop?

    Toggle bumblebee with the following and post dmesg

    # tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<OFF
    # tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<ON

    Did you use option glxspheres?

    What version of CUDA are you running?
    chown -R us ./base
