To get 3d functionality you need to use optirun.<br>
<br>
Is the bbswitch module loaded?, you can check this with lsmod | grep<br>
bbswitch<br>
<br>
Is the bumblebeed service running?, you can check this with ps -ef |<br>
grep bumble<br>
<br>
What kind of vga card do you have, can you post the output of lspci |<br>
grep -i vga<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
