For notebooks, you can pipe the nvidia chip throught the intel chip. This makes bumblebee etc obsolete.
You need to install the nvidia proprietary drivers.

Then you need to modify your xorg.conf like this:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "layout"
Screen 0 "nvidia"
Inactive "intel"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
# generated from default
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "nvidia"
Device "nvidia"
Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "intel"
Driver "modesetting"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "intel"
Device "intel"
EndSection
