These packages will install the nVidia driver package the bumblebee way.
All nVidia libraries will be installed in a seperate directory.
The packages can be used on Optimus enabled and standard nVidia systems.

Downloader and installer for the nVidia driver package

Installing these packages can take a long time. These packages will automatically download the NVIDIA driver (+-70MB) from
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64 or http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86 and save it in /usr/src.
The driver and libraries will be installed after the download.

The installer will install the nVidia files the Bumblebee way. The libraries will NOT interfere with any other libraries of a distribution and will be installed in a seperate nvidia directory. Usage will be controlled by editing the ld.so.conf(.d) and/or using the "ModulePath" var in xorg.conf.

You can also download the NVIDIA package yourself and copy it to the /usr/src directory. The installer will then skip the download part and just install the driver and libraries the Bumblebee way.

These rpms can be used by normal and Optimus enabled nVidia systems.

Please be aware that recompiling the module by dkms can take several minutes depending on your system. Dkms will halt the start of the graphical system till compilation is finished.

Remark for Leap 16.0:

If you use a nVidia only system. please manual force the /usr/lib64/libOpenGL.so.0 and libOpenGL.so.0.0.0 libs to the nVidia ones.
Leap 16.0 / X11 / KDE seem not to follow the ldconfig cache.
Results in undefined symbol _glap_tls_Current error messages in several apps (sddm, kate...)

ln -sf /usr/lib64/nvidia/libOpenGL.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/libOpenGL.so.0
ln -sf /usr/lib64/nvidia/libOpenGL.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/libOpenGL.so.0.0.0

Leap 16.0 needs a lot a manual tweaks sadly enough....
Not a very good "update" after all those years.
