I've tried to install the bumblebee-ppa on Ubuntu oneiric 11.10.! I used the information on launchpad.

The command ```optirun glxspheres``` results in a black screen with unreadable, senseless text (I will sent a photo to you), which I can escape by moving the mouse. The terminal informs me, that "Bumblebee X server not available" and refers to ```/var/log/bumblebee.log```.

Maybe it's the same problem as issue #103, but I can't get a solution out of it.

I'm using:
