Perhaps I was unclear in the steps I outlined. I _did_ think I was fairly
explicit in "don't use bumblebee", but perhaps not enough. So let me be crystal
clear:

DO NOT USE BUMBLEBEE.

Also, you don't have to wait for your distribution to make a kernel available.
(Unless you're using genkernel or something crazy like that... but even that
should be able to build an arbitrary tree, I thought.) You can get releases
from http://www.kernel.org/ and/or you can create your own git clone.
