Did you run this last command with sudo? Else, probably a duplicate of #337.

i followed directiosn i found here, i already purged bumblebee, and start from scratch. It doesn't work. I have to add manually bbswtich:

sudo modprobe bbswitch

i'll check the post #337 and back latter

Yes, post #337 worked for me too
