I've installed Bumblebee and it seems that it is working as expected (i.e. turning on the nVidia card when using primusrun, otherwise using intel)

When not using the GPU, a cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch says the dGPU is off (0000:01:00.0 OFF) but powertop says the nVidia usage is at 100%
100.0% PCI Device: NVIDIA Corporation GP108M [GeForce MX150]
I'm now confused if bumblebee is turning off the card as it should.
My setup: ASUS VivoBook S Thin Intel Core i7-8550U, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, GeForce MX150

Thanks
