To launch glxgears with Intel card correctly, i must to re-install mesa-glx
and nvidia-glx (I launch this command with Nvidia 304.88 and it works) :
> aptitude reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgl1-nvidia-glx
> libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386 bumblebee-nvidia
>
So now, if i launch "update-alternatives --config glx", i have this result :
> It exist 2 choices for alternative glx (which supplies /usr/lib/glx).
>
> Select Way Priority State

>> 0 /usr/lib/nvidia 100 automatic mode

>> 2 /usr/lib/nvidia 100 manual mode

If i launch "glxgears", i have this :

For "primusrun glxgears", i have this :

>>
>> Second, please verify that:
>> # update-alternatives --config glx
>> ...only gives you the option of having /usr/lib/nvidia provide the glx
>> alternative, but if you do:
>> # apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx
>> # update-alternatives --config glx
>> ...you are now given the option to select /usr/lib/mesa-diverted as

>> server is driven by your intel gpu and requires mesa's libGL for 3d
>> acceleration, not nvidia's).
