Bumblebee for CentOS5/RHEL5

I have a laptop running CentOS 5.9 with switchable/hybrid graphics (Intel integrated and Nvidia). For now, have managed to successfully install Nvidia driver using NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-331.20.run file from Nvidia website, but failed to start xserver.

To use both adapters I need to install Bumblebee, but there is no package available for x64_64 CentOS5 or RHEL5 and need to install Bumblebee manually from source following instruction:
github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/wiki/Install-and-usage
but don't know how to set the following paths
Code:
./configure CONF_DRIVER=nvidia CONF_DRIVER_MODULE_NVIDIA=nvidia-current \
CONF_LDPATH_NVIDIA=/usr/lib/nvidia-current:/usr/lib32/nvidia-current \
CONF_MODPATH_NVIDIA=/usr/lib/nvidia-current/xorg,/usr/lib/xorg/modules

The nvidia directories/files located on the machine are:
Code:
# locate nvidia
/lib/modules/2.6.18-348.el5/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia
/lib/modules/2.6.18-348.el5/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidiafb.ko
/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/21-video-quirk-pm-el5-nvidia.fdi
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-348.el5-x86_64/drivers/video/nvidia
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-348.el5-x86_64/drivers/video/nvidia/Makefile
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-348.el5-x86_64/include/config/fb/nvidia
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-348.el5-x86_64/include/config/fb/nvidia.h
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-348.el5-x86_64/include/config/fb/nvidia/i2c.h

Can anyone please help?

The interfaces sup- ported by the wm driver include: o Intel i82542 1000BASE-X Ethernet o Intel i82543GC 1000BASE-X Ethernet o Intel i82543GC 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82544EI 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82544EI 1000BASE-X Ethernet o Intel i82544GC 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82544GC (LOM) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82540EM 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82540EM (LOM) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82540EP 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82541EI 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82541EI (Mobile) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82541ER 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82541GI 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82541PI 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82545EM 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82545EM 1000BASE-X Ethernet o Intel i82545GB 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82545GB 1000BASE-X Ethernet o Intel i82545GM 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82546EB 1000BASE-T Ethernet (dual-port) o Intel i82546EB 1000BASE-X Ethernet (dual-port) o Intel i82546GB 1000BASE-T Ethernet (dual-port) o Intel i82546GB 1000BASE-X Ethernet (dual-port) o Intel i82547EI 1000BASE-T Ethernet (CSA) o Intel i82547GI 1000BASE-T Ethernet (CSA) o Intel i82571 1000BASE-T Ethernet (dual-port) o Intel i82572 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82573 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82575 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82576 Ethernet (Copper, Fiber) o Intel i80003 Ethernet (Copper, Fiber) o Intel i82801H (ICH8 LAN) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82801I (ICH9 LAN) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel i82801J (ICH10 LAN) 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel 82578 with Intel 5 series chipset (PCH) o Intel 82579 with Intel 6 or 7 series chipset (PCH2) o Intel 82580 Ethernet (Copper, Fiber) o Intel 82583 1000BASE-T Ethernet o Intel I350 Ethernet (Copper, Fiber) In addition to Intel's own ``PRO/1000'' line of Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, these chips also appear on some server systems, processor evalu- ation boards, and in embedded systems. The i8254x supports IPv4/TCP/UDP checksumming and TCP segmentation in hardware. The wm driver supports these features of the chip. See ifconfig(8) for information on how to enable this feature.
