Linux Nvidia driver works bad for me

Question

I've installed Bumblebee, it loads nvidia driver correctly... I can see it in /proc/drivers:

quux@quux-Ideapad-Z570 ~ $ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version 
NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module  319.60  Wed Sep 25 13:58:16 PDT 2013
GCC version:  gcc version 4.8.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.1-10ubuntu9) 
quux@quux-Ideapad-Z570 ~ $ 

But driver doesn't work good, I've tried 304, 304-updates and 319-updates:

It gives much lower fps than integrated one. glmark2 benchmark tool rated Nvidia with 59 score and integrated Intel - 751!

When i run optirun nvidia-settings it says that You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just runnvidia-xconfigas root), and restart the X server.. Bumblebee config:

[bumblebeed]
# The secondary Xorg server DISPLAY number
VirtualDisplay=:8
# Should the unused Xorg server be kept running? Set this to true if waiting
# for X to be ready is too long and don't need power management at all.
KeepUnusedXServer=false
# The name of the Bumbleblee server group name (GID name)
ServerGroup=bumblebee
# Card power state at exit. Set to false if the card shoud be ON when Bumblebee
# server exits.
TurnCardOffAtExit=false
# The default behavior of '-f' option on optirun. If set to "true", '-f' will
# be ignored.
NoEcoModeOverride=false
# The Driver used by Bumblebee server. If this value is not set (or empty),
# auto-detection is performed. The available drivers are nvidia and nouveau
# (See also the driver-specific sections below)
Driver=nvidia
# Directory with a dummy config file to pass as a -configdir to secondary X
XorgConfDir=/etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.d

## Client options. Will take effect on the next optirun executed.
[optirun]
# Acceleration/ rendering bridge, possible values are auto, virtualgl and
# primus.
Bridge=auto
# The method used for VirtualGL to transport frames between X servers.
# Possible values are proxy, jpeg, rgb, xv and yuv.
VGLTransport=proxy
# List of paths which are searched for the primus libGL.so.1 when using
# the primus bridge
PrimusLibraryPath=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/primus:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/primus
# Should the program run under optirun even if Bumblebee server or nvidia card
# is not available?
AllowFallbackToIGC=false

[driver-nvidia]
# Module name to load, defaults to Driver if empty or unset
KernelDriver=nvidia-319-updates
PMMethod=auto
# colon-separated path to the nvidia libraries
LibraryPath=/usr/lib/nvidia-319-updates:/usr/lib32/nvidia-319-updates
# comma-separated path of the directory containing nvidia_drv.so and the
# default Xorg modules path
XorgModulePath=/usr/lib/nvidia-319-updates/xorg,/usr/lib/xorg/modules
#XorgConfFile=/etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia
XorgConfFile=/etc/X11/xorg.conf

As you can see in config I even tried to use xorg.conf generated by nvidia-xconfig instead of Bumblebee xorg.conf.nvidia, result is the same.

quux@quux-Ideapad-Z570 ~ $ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig:  version 304.108  (buildmeister@swio-display-x64-rhel04-07)  Wed Jul

Help me to run nvidia-settings

Answer 1

The question was asked bleeding ages ago, but this works for me: optirun nvidia-settings -c :8
